I see now what you mean.  Then maybe better to revert the change in
etags-goto-tag-location to restore its original behavior, and
fix only its usage by xref, i.e. exactly the same change
for xref-location-marker ((l xref-etags-location)) as was made
for xref-location-marker ((l xref-elisp-location)):
