No, that does not follow - nRF51 also supports non-BT protocols.

In fact, nRF51 is not recommended for new BLE projects:

Yes, you can - but it is not recommended that you do!

If it's just for a school or hobby project, it probably doesn't matter.

If you're developing a commercial product, it does.
