Sounds like a classic case of programmers ignoring corner cases: Towing, ferries, car trains, pushing the car because it broke down...

It's when you find messages in the log like "this should never happen".

You can pretty clearly use it to correct errors up to a point though. If you have a 5km difference from when the GPS was turned off, you've probably hit a corner case. If you have a 25m difference, and it's converging on the last location as you pick up satellites, snapping to the prior location is almost certainly correct.
