    A blocked contributor with a new account?<br>
    <br>
    The resulting relation - a road relation, is even more pointless
    than associated street. It should be removed. <br>

      <p>I'm curious as to why a new user in their first changeset would

        I've never seen the point of them & have removed a few when
        full addressing has been added.<br>
        This is another example of relations being used just to collect
        'things' together.<br>
        <br>
        The positives for using them are tenuous. <br>
        "adding information... only once" and "reducing the potential
        for spelling mistakes." is moot as multiple buildings can be
