Holds true for any location on Earth, thus doesn't mean anything.

Actually it's a little different. You can eventually go to other locations on Earth and interact with them. People living there could eventually come to your area.
This cosmological event horizen means that we can
never reach any locations outside of it or interact with them - they are already expanding away from us too quickly for us to ever detect or interact with them in any way (because we are limited by light speed).
As such for all practical purposes they may as well not exist.
