Why do you use the system of longitude and latitude what happen if you stop using these coordinates?

If you stop ,the military and other peoples who reads maps e.g. Captain of theship ,can't locate the places.for example when the captain crew tells the captainthere is a ship at a specific place ,instead of saying the name of the place they canjust say the longitude and the latitudes of the place ant the captain can find theplace more easily!================================This is especially important when you're dealing with places that have no namesand no recognizable description ... like the place where the Titanic sank, or anyother place out at sea.The effect is exactly the same as trying to find your doctor's new office, or sendyour friend a letter, without street addresses.
