I installed GeoClue 2.5.6-0ubuntu1.1 from proposed including the dev and demo packages. I cannot confirm that this fixes the issue as described in the test case above using the where-am-i demo and Pantheon's polkit agent
I then tried with GNOME Maps both from deb packaging and from Flatpak and both were able to access my location while location services were disabled
I also tried using the agent demo from geoclue-2-demo, and both where-am-i and GNOME maps were able to access location without permission while location services were marked disabled
