[class.this]/1: In the body of a non-static ([class.mfct]) member function, the keyword this is a prvalue whose value is the address of the object for which the function is called.

I think the value of this should be "pointer to", because there is no such value as "address of":
Every value of pointer type is one of the following:
— a pointer to an object or function (the pointer is said to point to the object or function), or
— a pointer past the end of an object ([expr.add]), or
— the null pointer value ([conv.ptr]) for that type, or
— an invalid pointer value.
