Description
I am working with Adafruit_CircuitPython_BLE on a MacBook running Monterey 12.3. The code below is an example from the Adafruit library (ble_advertising_simpletest.py).
`from adafruit_ble import BLERadio
from adafruit_ble.advertising import Advertisement
ble = BLERadio()
advertisement = Advertisement()
advertisement.short_name = "HELLO"
advertisement.connectable = True
while True:
print(advertisement)
ble.start_advertising(advertisement, scan_response=b"")
while not ble.connected:
pass
print("connected")
while ble.connected:
pass
`
When I get to the "ble.start_advertising" line I get the "NotImplementedError".
The MacBook should support BLE since it communicates with my iPhone, right?

Research direction
Start with ble_advertising_simpletest.py and the BLERadio.start_advertising call shown in the report. Reproduce the NotImplementedError on the stated MacBook environment, then determine whether the platform supports this operation and record the confirmed cause or required documentation change.
