Yeah, you can turn off the setting that makes it so turning wifi off actually does that instead of leaving it on but telling you and your apps that it's off.
I could live with that, but what really chafes my bits is how your apps can't get so much as an NMEA string without you turning the creepy tracking telemetry that pipes data on all the SSIDs and Bluetooth beacons around you back to the mothership back on. And having Location turned off breaks many apps for no good reason.
