I think it's a bit more nuanced than being at the country level. For instance - https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/iphone/iph771fd0aad/ios https://support.

"Australia: Ultra Wideband transmitters must not be operated within a nominated distance from specified Australian radio-astronomy sites." Further, your phone certainly doesn't have to know where it is to figure out what cellular bands to use, but instead that's based upon the SIM and cell provider settings.

a) Not all of the bands enabled by the phone's SIM are usable in all locations. Because this information is transmitted by the cell site, the phone does not have to enable location services. It knows where it is and what frequencies it can use, trust me. b) There are other locations where the entire phone isn't allowed to be turned on (the NRAO quiet zone near Green Bank comes to mind, unless this has changed recently.) So, no. This is not a valid excuse.
