Windows Central Question

Greetings everyone!

I got a question regarding the Mobile Hotspot feature on my HP Elite X3 in combination with my Surface Book.

The Phone's Mobile Hotpot settings has a toggle for other devices to automatically switch to a, I assume less power hungry, Bluetooth connection after a WiFi connection has been established/requested but I'm not seeing this happening with my Surface Book. ( in the Network Adapter properties only WiFi has a connection )

Strangely enough, on the Surface Book the Phone is being displayed under BT Settings but it's also mentioned that the "Setup incomplete because of a metered connection" with the option to [ Remove device ].

Any suggestions what to do to get this to reliably change to BT? My Phone keeps getting fairly warm while using the WiFi Hotspot which is also a reason I'd like to get this working under BT in hopes for a cooler experience =)
