Well it could be used as matter of getting all contact information by
knowing just number. This won't work for private use, but for companies
seems to be good deal.

Sure, but you forgot that people still exchange number using their own
voice via phone or personally, number still better then name handle. And
its because not in every country people understand English alphabet very
well and even so numbers just easier/faster to pronounce via phone line.
