But it’s verifiable for your counterparty. If you’re on Encrochat you know that your counterparty has no GPS in their phone.

But what's the threat model here? That your counterparty's phone has been compromised? In that case they can be leaking location through wifi/cell signals as mentioned earlier. There's also nothing preventing the counterparty from carrying a gps-enabled phone with him, which would be trivially linked to his Encrochat phone if he takes them both to the same locations.
