My rebuttal to your original point was to refute the fact that you said A-GPS is better than GPS.
You can use GPS with your phones radio completely off, so if you have aGPS it will work without a cell signal.

100% positive about this. I am connected to my wifi, with the cell off sitting in my apartment. I have 3 satellites connected according to google maps.
