New iPhone combining GPS, Galileo and GLONASS

Allegedly the new iPhones support combining GPS, Galileo and GLONASS signals for greater accuracy. https://www.macrumors.com/2017/09/26/iphone-8-iphone-x-galileo-satellite-support/

Does anyone know how the greater accuracy with Broadcom's new chip relates to greater accuracy combining the various systems? And what about reliability? Is combining multiple systems more reliable?
