Yet when I call emergency I must provide my location verbally, and then am usually contacted for a follow-up, because the guys cannot find the place. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure that this location technology works perfectly well: just not for the "only use case when this should be available".

It is also useful for emergency services to double check you know the situation at hand and to cooperate with verification SOPs.
