that is the exact point explaining why there is a need for contact:website. 
A website= is generally not a contact page but the homepage. Otoh 
contact:website= 
should contain a specific page for conatct, be it a contact form or perhaps 
a page listing all phone numbers.

The number of comunication apps is steadilly on the rise, many companies
advertise contact:skype and similar - any data consumer that knows "contact:"
can find and display those without even knowing they exist.
