It would suck, but guardrails on new technologies like this aren't unheard of. It's like when consumer GPS used to stop working at very high speeds because they didn't want people to use it for missile guidance systems.

Consumer GPS is still disabled at high speeds. I would argue the analogy doesn't carry due to harm and error rate differences.

Yep a totally different use case and set of guardrails. There’s very little (not zero) consumer utility in GPS above say 15k feet AND 400 MPH or whatever the actual limit is. That’s basically tracking model rockets that are incidentally impacted and nothing else, from what I can think of.

When’d that change?

He’s probably thinking of the accuracy limit to civilians it launched with.
