Thanks,

What I don't get is, why is it better to have a function
"addressOf(value)" that does exactly the same as &value? Expect that it
is more text to type? Why is addressOf(value) more explicit then &value?

A good part of that is the recent debate on what &func should do (take the address of the function vs. the address of its result). With the unsafe meaning out of the way, only the safe one is eligible.
