Ah, don't you need to know the use case before you condemn the solution? Inefficient yes, but still the best solution for this edge case. The ellipses were a lightly informed nod to the explanations offered by other commenters.
- ianai 4y agoI’m not condemning the solution. I’m condemning the implied critique of a system that you admit worked even in your edge case.
- unyttigfjelltol 4y agoI was not critiquing the USPS. The parent comment observed that the USPS no longer can complete delivery on a partial address. I was suggesting an explanation, i.e., sorting no longer is done by people with the local context necessary to complete such a delivery. That was confirmed by other comments, and indeed suggested by the article.
