Why would you want LLM navigation where offline deterministic navigation have been there forever?

A survival guide won't answer a question, you need to search it for some sort of keywords, you might not be using the same term or not know what a particular thing is called, and might end up having to read all of it to find the info you need, or not find it at all.
Navigation is a closed task, A* will always find an optimal route as long as your street info is current, you can't do better than that.
The thesis is that someday an LLM might perform better than both. But I agree, not yet.
