Summary
Real location is leaked
The problem
Apps selected to show fake location have access to real location
Steps to reproduce
Open Manage my location screen Select Use a random plausable location Scroll down to app list and unselect Camera and Maps so only these two apps will get real location. Reboot.
What is the current behavior?
Weather screen still shows real location weather even BlissWeather is selected to show fake location.
Open Firefox and go to Google maps URL, allow location access in browser - Google maps will show real location for a second or so before switching to a fake location.

Weather app should show fake location as per location settings. Firefox with Google maps web version opened should not be able to access real location even for a second.
