The problem still persists.

in current version, this problem persists.

I am also concerned about the blocking of updating the home position due to error message “No SRTM data in this area” in the poor internet connectivity environments.

In the ocean, accessing the internet freely is not feasible. The internet connection relies on satellite connectivity, which is limited in speed.

Using ArduPilot and Mission Planner in such oceanic conditions raises concerns for me.

I suggest fixing this problem. Additionally, I have reported this issue on GitHub.
