Why use the semantics of an electronic business cards standard to tag an entity's name? isn't this an example of hammering unfit-for-hcard content into hcard?

To me, if there is value in tagging and extracting entities from narrative Web content, it is a different problem than extracting contact information from a structured Web contact card, and as a result probably deserves its own class attributes, and maybe a microformat if that usage is widespread enough.

For now, in the example above the only thing that would make sense to me is an <href> link pointing to an anchor/id in the same/different page that would contain John Smith's contact information.
