Same reason we have DNS instead of remembering IP addresses.
- IanCal 10y agoDNS allows us to keep swapping the IP address associated with a service though, this (afaik) doesn't.
- pareshverma91 10y agoAbility to swap underlying ip address is orthogonal to using alphanumerics in DNS. Numeric sequences could also be used as CNAME for the ip address. But we don't because of human brain.
