The phone still needs to know which country you are in so it can follow local laws and regulations.
Apple doesn’t need to know where you are because the phone can enforce their rules offline.

"The phone" doesn't need to know anything about anything, and it's up to the user and/or any web services they use to follow local laws. Historically, physical objects have not needed to change their behavior when moving across national borders.
