It's my default navigation app on my iPhone 15+ anyway... as I
deleted the Apple "Maps" app as it just doesn't perform to the
same level here as Google Maps does.

Not sure what that means. When I navigate I've always chosen the app I
want - which used to be Google Maps, but now is Apple Maps (for short
trips); though I still prefer Google Maps for longer trips.
Both are on the main screen. Other nav related apps are in a "Nav"
folder on the main screen.
Perhaps this announcement is meant for other apps (incl. Apple apps)
that use a navigation app/api as a supporting layer? Not sure.
If you click on an address in your contact list or on the website using Safari it will automatically bring up Apple Maps. That is your default navigation app.
It would be interesting to see if asking Siri to guide you somewhere would cause Google Maps to be used. I doubt that.
