The paradox or enigma here might be the fact that the OP complained in
this forum that his Night Light feature had gotten his location rather
wrong by what we can only assume was the same, IP-based method (before he
presumably manually fed the app his exact longitudinal and latitudinal
coordinates). Which leads you to wonder whether Night Light might
be sharing that user-provided data with Maps.
