I don't have that experience (using AAC, that is), but I do enjoy being able to select the Bluetooth audio codec with Pipewire (SBC, AAC, SBC-XQ, mSBC, etc.).
The array of supported and configurable Bluetooth codecs are the reason I switched. Now I can use AAC for music, SBC-XQ for video and interactive content and switch to mSBC when I need to make a call, all from the user interface.
