Chris Sheldrick is providing a precise and simple way to talk about
location, by dividing the world into a grid of three-meter by
three-meter squares and assigning each one a unique three-word address.

Sounds like a brilliant idea...until you stop to think about it for two
seconds. In fact it is a stupid idea.

My home, when split into 3x3meter squares, would have around 10
'addresses', some of which fall partially outside of my property.

When you examine the ten 3-word 'addresses' for the property, you would
have NO clue they belong to the same physical property.

so what?

the goal is to make it easier to find a specific location, not to
survey a property.

the only 'address' you need to provide is the 3x3m square for your
front door or possibly your driveway.

Get one letter wrong in any of the words, and your GPS might take you to
the other side of the planet. Now would you like to order an Uber?

that can't happen.
