Why is there no OOB Location Tree Picker available to Portal catalog items?

Is there an OOB expectation for how end users should pick a location in a tree structure within a Catalog Item?

Your answer was helpful.  But my question is why hasn't ServiceNow bothered to create a widget for what appears to be base functionality.

For example, if I am traveling to another location (not on my User record) and need to put in a ticket based on that location, seems like the base functionality should easily accommodate that.

The fact that the base functionality doesn't accommodate that has me wondering if I am missing a key piece of functionality that would be appropriate to use in that situation.
