Does anyone use the 9 Char Zip?

I mentioned in an earlier post, that due to some GPS's having limited real estate, does anyone use the 9 Char. Zip Code. Give me a good reason to use all 9 rather than 5, since the coordinates get you to the location.

I see no reason to use the +4 of Zip+4

Unless one wants it for convenience sake in use of the GPSr as an electronic address book.

Address info is somewhat valuable, as the process the GPSr uses to extrapolate a position from an address is not the most accurate.
