That’s the fundamental difference from the anti-GOF side. The fundamental difference from the pro-GOF side is that understanding exactly how a nuke works gets you no closer to being able to protect a population from nukes because there is no such thing as a nuke vaccine.

Your suggestion seems like a likely workable compromise if one of those labs is primarily in the US/Euro sphere and the other is primarily in the Russia/China sphere, with enforced transparency.

Yeah, I pontificated about physical location for a while and... wow, that'd be a difficult set of negotiations.

Probably Switzerland, because, hey, Swiss and history.

Other than that, it's almost have to be as neutral / third-party of a state as you could find.

Maybe New Zealand or one of the small island nations that's willing to declare neutrality in exchange for hosting?

Islands and caves are hard to argue against.
