There's another great example of this in maps, where it will refuse to let you favourite your home or work address if it's not in the right format. It won't even tell you that it failed - it doesn't do it and the interface doesn't make it obvious that it didn't do it. So you're out of luck if you want to figure out _why_ it isn't working.

In my case I had a country name accidentally put in a region field, but it didn't look out of place because field labels are missing when filled in. Frustratingly, your contact card with that address will show a map preview that when tapped opens maps with a pin in the right place, so there's clearly some logic to "fix" incorrect addresses somewhere.
