On what basis would a proxy/B2BUA/ALG decide what location to add?  I
use the same proxy (in my office) from the same UA (on my laptop) from
many different locations.

I think that is easily refutable: compare of the number of PSAPs and
implementations intended for use in them against the number of telephony
providers, pbxs, user agents and implementations intended for such use.
There are very very few of the former, and they are very highly
motivated because they are providing the emergency services; it's the
latter that will take the greater time and effort.
