Comment (by swissspidy):

 It's worth noting that the `aim`, `jabber`, and `yim` fields were removed
 as default user contact methods ''for new installations''. See
 `wp_get_user_contact_methods()`. That means old sites potentially still
 have these fields, which makes these totally valid arguments for
 `get_the_author_meta()`.
