Usually, you don't care about contact, you want them to take some sort
of action as well.

There is no relationship between the two, one way or the other.

All PA resources can be traced back to a legal entity which has
submitted proof of its existence to RIPE NCC.  For PI resources, the
status is less clear, but I can't tell if this is an issue in
practice.  And there are countries (curiously, not the ones you would
expect) where forming a limited liability company is so easy and cheap
that accountability is seriously impacted.
