A couple of things  First you have two tags that are not needed, addr:state
and  addr:country.

The other is a question on how you plan to conflate address? A quick glance
showed that some of the new address nodes are a few meters away from the
building polygon - with an address. With a large import - it could be hard
to catch.

Best,
Clifford
