This notes the potential for misleading location information, but does
not explain that subjective views also create the potential for the
LIS to apply the wrong policy to a given location request. It's sort
of implied, but I think it's worth stating explicitly, because it
creates a problem of equal concern if the LIS doesn't realize it's
dealing with a subjective view.
