Core Location reports incorrect location update especially with underground travel

Description of the Bug:

Core Location intermittently reports inaccurate location updates, albeit with a high accuracy value. This problem occurs almost exclusively while travelling in metros underground affecting the ability to rely on the framework effectively.

Steps to Reproduce:

The user starts travelling on ground level at point A

The user continues travelling and, after some time, is now underground at point B. A stationary beacon scanned at point B confirms this.

Core Location is observed to deliver a location update with a high-accuracy value but with the coordinates around point A when the user is actually around point B.

Expected Behaviour:

Accurate locations should be delivered at all times. In other words, Core Location should not report location updates with high accuracy when its certainty is low.

The correct place to file bug reports is not the forums, but the Feedback Assistant.
