Concerning the: Setting it to .other will stop following known paths I did some outdoor testing with .other this weekend and the snap-to-road behavior still occurred. Same behavior than with .fitness: on this picture the user turned right, but instead the GPS generated “corrected data” that turned left for 50 meters and then snapped to the right road I came across other links that recommend .otherNavigation instead. Nothing in the documentation is very specific about this, but I'll give it a try and get back to you.
