<p><span style="font-size: 10pt;">It might help to have some kind of paradigm here as I think our frames of reference may be divergent. If we don't have consensus about the "question" we will never agree about the "answer" except by coincidence, and that would be the worst situation of all.</span></p>
<p>What are the use cases for an "address"? Is it as a routing target? A "label" or "annotation" for a building? or a "property" in a looser sense? Is it for the benefit of the postman? Or what?</p>

generally it will be more useful to have an area tagged where there is one, eg in your examples above. A node is not a nice representation of an address on a 1000,000 hectares property
