I disagree, in addition to battery savings, which I think are greater than what's indicated below, and the fact that if you're between power sources that extra 30 minutes or so could be important, there's also the security concerns. I know that bluetooth is "secure" but why leave yourself open if you're not going to be using your bluetooth for an extended period of time. IMHO, whether you want your bluetooth running or not is a personal preference and no one is wrong for leaving it on or wanting a quick way to turn it off.
