Climbing Mt. Everest is something of vast personal acheivement but land on top with a helicopter and having your picture taken to prove you were there is quite another.

Can they add /RHR or such please?
So I can choose if  I want to make this kind of QSO.

BTW, I require a remote solution for climbing Everest or participate in Car Racing. That is currently not possible from where I am sitting and I demand the option.

When a ham operates a remote station using his call sign that is within the continental US, it makes no difference. If a ham is operating at an alternate QTH he does not have to sign/X any longer. Those days are gone. SO even if you look him up it does not mean he is at that location. The rub comes in when you want credit for an award like WAS, so what credit do you get? I suppose he needs to know where the station is located so he can write it on a QSL card for your credit.

This is a BIG issue to grapple with.  It would make sense to me that a
callsign transmitted over the air should correspond to a station location
in a publically viewable registry and if the location of the transmission
deviates, the callsign needs to append /XX to reflect the station location.
