It's very simple: it's a closed system. So their company own the database of words which are mapped to locations and this is not Open Data so the only way of mapping three words to a location, or vice versa, is through their company and its servers.

Can you get an offline W3W map with all the areas’ names downloaded? Does W3W work even if the company gets hacked and goes offline?
If not, it adds an extra layer of reliance in an emergency situation. Isn’t that the writer’s point?
