BUG? GPS Enabled when Recording Session is active

Hi -
I've been having a lot of issues trying to get the GPS to be disabled in my Gym Set/Timer app.
Despite

1) Asking explicitly for GPS and disabling it
2) NOT asking for GPS

both of the above will STILL turn on GPS.

I then tried other means..

I initially tot that it's because of my SUB_SPORT / SPORT that I was selecting - but didn't look that way, then I tried to change an existing program that was not using recording session and altered it to be a recording session. Wah lah!!..

I took the example from the SDK - TIMER

1) w/o recording session - i do NOT see the words GPS
2) w/ the recording session - I see the words GPS


I'm running this on an F3 on FW 4.0 CIQ 11.3

Please help to verify if the behaviour is intended (which I'm guessing it's NOT)
