Can confirm the bug still exists in 20.04.1 and just like Stephan T mentioned, the workaround only works for a few reboots, then goes back to visibility being on by default and becoming a security issue.

There should be a separate UI switch for discoverability with auto timeout. Leaving bluetooth on (using a Bluetooth mouse) should not leave the computer always discoverable. Current behavior does not match documentation https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/bluetooth- visibility.html.en, even without Bluetooth panel open, the computer is still discoverable.
