It's certainly disappointing but not a deal breaker if there is a workaround with phone. I don't gett all those people who are glad there is no GPS. Why? If you don't like it, don't want to use it, then turn it off. Same with touchscreen, same with video. It's always better to have options rather than being happy you have puristic bare bones camera body.

back when there was worry about having devices confiscated by customs for having GPS, that might have been one reason to not want it.   Otherwise (and seemingly everywhere now), yes, you just turn it off.

Pull out LCDs is another one that has strong feelings.    You don't have to unfurl it, but it is weaker than an immobile one.
