The dot locations don't have a very high resolution. Near where I live the grid means that 'touching' dots are at closest half a mile apart. So you can't tell the pinpoint close enough to see whether it's indicating the phone's location or the base station's location. There are still battling articles about this: one author writes one thing another writes something else that can't be conciled with it. I guess we won't know for sure until someone reads the source code, or Apple explains precisely what it does.
