My goal is to have folks who want to connect to a particular device, use `requestDevice()`, and folks who want a stream of advertisements from a bunch of nearby devices, use `requestLEScan()`. The devices returned by `requestLEScan()` should have a way to upgrade to GATT communication, but doing it that way will involve two permission requests (1 for scanning and 1 for the upgrade), while `requestDevice()` will only involve one request. I don't want to limit `requestDevice()` to already-connected peripherals because that'll force users to find their OS-specific way to connect the device before pairing it to the website. We should let them do that in one step. I'm happy to add text to the spec clarifying this; let me know what sort of text would help you the most. -- GitHub Notification of comment by jyasskin Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/WebBluetoothCG/web-bluetooth/issues/255#issuecomment-235741531 using your GitHub account
