Yes it may confuse but I think its correct, the basic rule is if you want to update postal address (ContactMech) it will expire old one and create new one with update. So Ideally PostalAddress is an immutable object where you can;t do modification in it.
if you want to update you need to clone it and do update. I think we can add this in entity auto engine so that it will be part of entity auto framework.
