The current use of geom:latitude and geom:longitude is causing the above search to display San Francisco in the Pacific. Defaulting to the lbl:latitude and lbl:longitude values would solve this issue and similar cases, as we curate the lbl: properties for map display.

Yes, that's a bug. We should probably document the logic here as a reference for all the software-bits to implement:
