Well, the good news is that Gnome doesn't crash anymore. The bad news
is that's probably because Bluetooth doesn't work anymore in the first
place :-)

Clicking on the 'on' toggle in the gnome-settings panel just
immediately turns off again, and in the journal I can see:

May 18 15:10:25 p16s systemd[2230]: Started app-gnome-gnome\x2dbluetooth\x2dpanel-82800.scope - Application launched by gnome-shell.

I do not use bluetooth for anything, so I won't spend time digging
deeper. Please feel free to close as unreproducible if you wish to do
so.
