TP-Link UB500 always uses the same MAC address

According to this tweet (https://twitter.com/rioriost/status/1511664649305202690/retweets/with_comments) and one post in Amazon.jp, the TP-Link UB500 adapter uses the same MAC address so you can't install two devices in the same network. I didn't find any source for this in English.

A tp-link UB500 is a small USB bluetooth device, the kind of thing you would buy to connect a bluetooth mouse or headset to a computer that does not have built-in bluetooth.

This appears to apply to UB400 devices as well.

Here is a tp-link page where they say that it is not possible to use two of the same UB devices in the same place, but a UB400 and a UB500 will work.
