The advertising type is hardcoded to NON_CONNECTABLE_UNDIRECTED, which may not be appropriate for all use cases. Consider making this configurable or using the existing advertising configuration.

The advertising interval is hardcoded to 200ms. This magic number should be made configurable or defined as a named constant to improve maintainability.

The comment is unclear about when this automatic TX power setting occurs versus when setTxPower() should be used. This could confuse users about the intended API usage pattern.

Hardcoded TX power value (4) should be made configurable or removed. This conflicts with the separate setTxPower() method and creates unexpected behavior where enabling Coded PHY always sets power to 4 dBm.

Suggested change
// Set TX power here if not using setTxPower separately
gap.setTxPower(4);
// TX power should be set via setTxPower() if needed
