Comment:

 Putting a range into `addr:housenumber` is a bad idea because a dash may
 be a valid part of the house number. Real world examples can be found
 [http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/52.36034/4.89425 in the Netherlands]
 and [http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/40.71407/-73.83444 in Queens,
 NY]. Use a short way with `addr:interpolation` and two separate
 `addr:housenumber` nodes instead.
