Increasing Bluetooth capability

everyone is aware of the fact that the Bluetooth connection is limited. Mostly till about 10 meter.
and,... We have more equipment to 'talk' with our computer, ipad, iPhone tc!
so when your Appke watch, for example, is talking to your iPhone, then in practice it's not possible to have an orher conversation by bluetooth. 
Perhaps the solution is niw available see link bellow. 
My question /suggestion is: is this Cassia Hub able to connect with Homey??  And will this be a imprivement for the bluetooth communication that Homey use?  I think so!!

    @Athom: Sommo asks a very good question indeed, which should be asked a bit broader I think: Is there a list of technical specifications of Homey, including the limitations of amount devices, flows, etc.? How many devices of type x do you support being added, working, etc.? Max amount of zones, max amounts of flows, etc.? Surely you have SOME limitation?  Can I add 10.000 flows with one homey in e.g. a home-for-the-elderly (might be automatically created flows, generated by my own deployment tool for example)? Can I add 2500 devices?

    There are no fixed limitations for flows, zones or devices. You'll probably notice it'll get a little bit slow if you have 10.000 flows ;-)
