Probably because your hearing aid is a Bluetooth class 2 or 3 device
which will have a low permitted transmit power (2.5mW) to prolong
battery life. This wll decrease reliable range.

The hearing aid is receiving, not transmitting

It will be doing both, if only to accept/ack the audio packets.

Without knowledge about the Bluetooth stack it's difficult to comment
more, but I doubt it will be the equivalent of a pure UDP one way coms.
