Dan, thanks for the comment, you are mostly correct. And most phone companies recommend that if you travel a lot to change your phone’s address. the bottom line is that the emergency address doesn’t lock you to one location — it’s just a safety net. When you’re away from home, your phone will still try to send your actual location. But if that fails, the system falls back to the registered address, so having it correct is important for emergencies at your primary Wi‑Fi location.

Updating your phone, as your article suggests, is only helpful if the emergency occurs at home, which is better than nothing, so thanks for the info.
