So this is a non-issue. But technically, even if an app slips through the cracks and only allows "Always" and "While using the app" as options, you can force-quit the app without pressing either of the buttons on the modal and then deleting the app, thus not giving it any location information.

It can't. The permissions UI is rendered by the OS, not by the application. There's no way to hide the option to deny permissions.
Based on your previous reply I thought that the lack of apps that require location was due to Apple’s review process and not the fact that the “Never” button can’t be disabled.
It's both. If your app doesn't work properly when a user taps the "Never" button (which you can't get rid of), Apple rejects it.
