I fully agree. That's why OLC support is such a big thing: it's solving real issues right now and is more free than many CC projects. Also, it's THE addressing system used for the 90% in Cabo Verde that don't have a street address, so to accurately implement addresses there you would at least have to implement OLC for Cabo Verde. I spoke lately with people on a Dutch train station that come from Cabo Verde and it's a huge thing there to have OLC for their shipments. It's a short stretch from there to implement it for the world.
