His goofiness and actions that may seem disrespectful are simply making the information more palpable for the audience than word vomit.

      It will work but it will have reduced range. How is it possible? The controller is not sealed shut and the bluetooth signal doesn't need to go very far so it works out. (It helps that there are many gaps in the shoulder buttons and triggers which is roughly the area where the bluetooth signal propagates from) That said I kinda expect around 5 feet of range to be on the upper limit before it starts acting up or losing connection.
