[ML] I think a reasonable compromise is to allow both formats, but we could 
require that they NOT be used simultaneously. This could avoid confusion for 
clients. The same could apply to the full name and name components.

[JS] Glad to see that we won’t be excluding unstructured addresses in RDAP 
JSContact. Though, not sure about "they NOT be used simultaneously”. Even if 
structured components are available, unstructured data is typically intended 
for human-friendly presentation of an address or a name per some economy or 
culture. IMO, the guidance should be to encourage supplying structured 
components but not discourage additionally providing unstructured data, be it 
for an address or a name.

PK> I agree. I propose to add SHOULD for components, unless there is no 
technical mean to provider structured data.

Regarding JSContact address components, I think that we should only allow 
"name", "locality", "region" and "postcode". The "country" component is 
redundant because countryCode is already allowed.

PK agree

[JS] Per RFC 9553 [1], “country” is country name and “countryCode” its 2-letter 
code. Should we not keep both?
