Either you trust the system, in which case you can trust that you can deny location to the programs that according to you "don't require it"; or you don't trust the system, in which case it will just broadcast the position whenever you enable the killswitch to everyone who could be even remotely interested. And again when you enable it is usually when you are most likely going to leak something interesting. There is here some usefulness in terms of having "another layer", but academically this is really debatable.
