"most" is not "all". So this is just another arbitrary restriction.

Why? Chosing a completely different address later is no problem at all.

The word "spine" is, of course, an anagram of "penis". This  is  true
in  almost  fifty  percent  of  the languages of the Galaxy, and many
people have attempted to explain why. Usually these explanations  get
bogged down in silly puns about "standing erect".
