Even if this is true -- for all jurisdictions in the NCC service region? -- I am unable to invent a scenario where the NCC would have to use fax instead of registered snail-mail for such "legally valid" communication with one of its members.

Members who are still living in the 1980s or have legal systems forcing them to do that are of course welcome to add an optional fax number to their contact data. Nobody else should bother.
