A Critical Analysis of the What3Words Geocoding Algorithm
For more on this, and why I think we shouldn't advocate for W3W, see: https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2019/03/why-bother-with-what-three-... for theoretical reasons and https://w3w.me.ss/ for some practical examples.
https://plus.codes seems much better, but sadly it uses numbers instead of words, which are much harder for humans to remember ( https://xkcd.com/936/ ), so I don't think it will ever catch on.
That's pretty sad in my opinion, is the whole concept of using words to encode a location now owned by w3w? The implementation seems trivial
Pluscode is a trademark. The actual standard is called "open location code" and is unrestricted - https://github.com/google/open-location-code/
> sadly it uses random characters instead of words
It was explicitly designed in that way [1]. It does make harder to remember, but I think the memorizability constrains other goals too much.

Evaluation of Location Encoding Systems
Yeah, that seems like a bad design choice. If you look at the spec [0], you can see that they only use "23456789CFGHJMPQRVWX" in the codes. They apparently scored the letters based on how well they can spell 10000 words in 30 languages, without thinking about character similarity. If they had involved actual humans instead of counting letter frequency, they might have noticed that the letter W looks similar to VV, and that its English name is "double U". And tried a letter like N or Y, which would be much harder to confuse.

First of all, they support plus codes, so you don't need a street address.

Setting Up Starlink, SpaceX's Satellite Internet
"Plus codes" are also known as "open location codes", and they are open source, not proprietary, nor do they rely on a central service.
You appear to be conflating other proprietary systems with this open one.
