When WotC say location, they mean the place where a creature is as distinct from where another creature is or might be. If I am hidden from you but you can deduce my location, you have a chance of hitting me when you attack. If you target the wrong location, you have no chance of hitting me. Whether or not one uses a grid, correctly targeting a creature's location has real mechanical significance. I balk at the term location because it is open to interpretation. It can mean a general area (eg London) or an address (30 Sutton Avenue) or it can be a place in a building (the meeting room on the third floor) or a precise spot (60 metres north of the altar). Exact position has the virtue of reducing this ambiguity at least a bit.</blockquote>
