Ok very funny but somehow this reminded me of that time in 2015 when I hadn't paid my Verizon bill in several months so I no longer had cell service, and I was out on my bicycle doing the best I could to find my way home after running an errand in an unfamiliar new place to me Springfield & Lorton Virginia and I had become hopelessly lost, no wifi available near me, but as a last ditch desperate grasp for any possible guidance I turned on my useless phone and opened Google maps, and to my surprise a blue dot appeared to show my location and it moved with me as I moved, and I was able to recognize where my home was on that map, and follow the roads to get there from my blue dot, and that's how I made it home that day even without cell service.

That was unexpected.
