Browser autocomplete works Really Badly for Japanese addresses (no standardized way of inputting addresses, including which font to use), so it should solve one major problem in Japan. That's different from e.g. my home country. Or almost anywhere else, for that matter.


TIL, I didn't know the situation was particularly bad in Japan.

I suppose the 'digital address' is solving the problem by effectively standardizing the input format.
