My thoughts exactly. Location Sharing in Google Maps is a totally different use case. Commercially it was probably a tough sell. Engagement metrics were probably abysmal - since you only need it in exceptional circumstances. It's really sad though. This was one of the products that really stood out for me. Not just a gimmick, but something that can really make a difference. I wish Google had shown a bit more idealism and kept it around.
