If BL would use their database to check addresses there might be privacy laws
involved.

There are postal code services, in Canada and the US at least, that is a thin
layer between the user and the site which will cleanse addresses (that are on
file).. it won't correct wrong addresses, but will format them.
But these services come at a cost.
So, from Bricklink's perspective, there are three options
1) Put the service in at their own cost
2) Put the serivce in, but make an adjustment to revenue (and since the only
revenue I think they have are fees, let's call it that)
3) Do nothing
now, based on how often a bad address makes life difficult for you, which do
you prefer.
Oh.... And you can't pick #1

There are a lot of things that I cannot pick with BL...
