Even more crazy, I have seen a number of places (different towns/villages) where the existing, old numbering  was changed (strike through of old, often stone engraved number and new number with paint or adhesive sticker). I cannot imagine any reason if not to deliberately create confusion ;-)

There are places in the world with 8 day weeks, 6 day weeks .. I'd not be surprised by a 5 day week!

And at least one country does not use 'the yearly calendar' the 'we' all do ..

So ... if  OSM is to be world wide it must allow for the interesting  'exceptions' by providing ways of entering and using the varied systems in use.
