You've (perhaps inadvertently) highlighted the problem.  A detached
building looks like a house, so is tagged as
building=detached.  A property in a terrace (row house in Merkin) doesn't
look like a house, so is tagged as
building=house.

Oh, and then there are bungalows and cottages, which count as houses in
OSM, so are tagged as
building=detached.
