With that change, virt-install finds the installer on the ISO and I'm able
to successfully create Ubuntu Server VMs from the command line using
--location and --options together.

THANK YOU!

The Ubuntu install does seem to be going out on the network to find
packages that are already on the ISO, but I think it also does that if I do
a physical install (with the ISO on a bootable USB). I don't know enough
about the Linux/Ubuntu install to know if that is normal or not.
