The problem with giving roads a letter instead of a name or nunber is that the names of over a third of the letters in our alphabet rhyme.
"Did you say turn left onto P and then right onto C?"
"No I said turn left onto B and then right onto Z."
Same problem as calling the key at noisy jam sessions. "Did you say 'D'?" "No, I said 'G'." "Oh, 'B'!"
