Damn, I was all riled up to read a good critique of OLC but this fell way short of the mark, in my opinion. Things like: > Implicit, however, is that the only way to resolve that shortened code is to make a call to the Google Maps API. Why? If OSM supports plus codes, that'll work equally well, no? > By allowing reference locations in plus codes these codes are tied to specific political entities Okay, but, as I understand it, you just need to point to something in the general vicinity, close enough that it can disambiguate Athens, Greece from Washington DC. Unless the city moves half a country away, the code will still work. > If so, what I really need to know is the correct parking, or rideshare drop off, and the closest entrance, not directions to center court, which is apparently where “Q5RQ+6V Dallas, Texas” actually is! Are you really complaining that the coordinate you set wasn't the coordinate you wanted to set? Or that Google Maps (not OLC) isn't smart enough to route you to a stadium properly? The rest of the article is similarly seemingly looking to pick a fight with tenuous assertions, I'm afraid.
