What is your use case? Certainly wouldn’t pay that though. Distance/direction from a clear reference point, link a URL of a map, lat/long. All options I would take above paying a subscription.

The original use case, as far as I know, is helping search and rescue. Words that are easy to communicate verbally, and easy to remember, so you dont have to worry about bad radio or phone signal garbling communication. Even if your phone dies, or you dont have pen/paper, it’s easy enough to remember the three words and communicate to search and rescue after you’ve made it out to a trailhead or whatever.
