The problem with plus codes it they're neither open nor codes. Try taking the alleged decoding algorithm and decode this one straight from Google Maps: "7W87+RRX Odesan, Sør-Sudan"

Did you notice how you can't "decode" the code without looking it up on Google Maps? That's not a location code, that's just using Google Maps.
