FWIW, on my Nexus 6P (where I do have Bluetooth turned on), it's doesn't show as a separate, detailed entry in the Battery details screen.

I don't often have it connected, so it looks like even polling/checking for nearby BT devices (if it actually explicitly does that) doesn't seem to use significant CPU or battery resources.

@stuarta, do you often have it connected to a device?

Also, that screenshot you posted doesn't really indicate over what time its reporting things (slightly misleading information screen, IMO :p), so those could be okay/normal stats depending on if you were actually using BT and it was over an extended period of time...
