It definitely is. You can't even set a "home" or "work" location without enabling continuous tracking.

  Yes, you can. I have location history disabled but I can route to home or work in Google Maps. Unless I am missing something. Disc: Googler.

      That link is 2.5 years old. Not sure when it changed but it's not the case right now AFAIK.

      No. I still can't use Home or Work. Maybe @google.com accounts have an exemption.

        Does this work?: Enable it, then set home and work. Then disable it.
