As to putting wifi and lan same layer 2 - lets agree to disagree here.. They really should not be on the same network - for what reason should they be? So your guests and your devices that use wifi all same network. IoT as well?
It's terribly convenient in many cases. It makes things like chromecast, printing, and other AV/file sharing much simpler. Sure, most of that can be isolated and done in a separate subnet, but there is a good case for bridging wireless in some cases. Particularly in homes. In businesses, not so much.
I'm spoiled having a UAP at home, I have an SSID in my LAN, and a couple other isolated SSIDs for testing and guests that land in other VLANs.
Yup the problem I had when I put the WiFi on it's own subnet I broke UPnP/DNLA for the WiFi devices.
Managed to remove the bridge by a moving some of the other device to other rooms and connected the LAN port to a LAN port on the Timecapsule.
