Adresses are anything but standard, many words can easily sound alike, and in some places that address couldn’t be properly spoken by a someone not familiar with the language. That’s when there even are adresses for your location. Many places simply don’t have one.
As for gps coordinates, they are rather long and enunciating long sequences of characters can be quite tedious as anyone who has ever had to deal with game cd keys could tell.
That, and most people don’t know NATO alphabet.
So I’d, on the contrary, say a geohash-ish approache relying on a dictionary of carefully chosen hard to confuse and easy to enunciate words has its merits.
But the optimal solution to me would be "press here to send your exact location".
