I happened to, but often don't do so for a week or more; it's not a
reliable way to contact me.

That is counter to recent discussion here (where the consensus was that
"label" should be used for unformatted addresses):

        <http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-discuss/2007-April/009251.html>

to the adr & hCard cheat-sheets:

        <http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-cheatsheet#Adr>

and to the warning given by Operator.

How is a parser to deal with a child-less "adr"?
