Andrew, anyway they are mapped in osm as addresses (ok special kind of addresses), and used in the way addresses usually used.
Addresses are still distinct as they was There is only one building for Praha, 606 and only one building for Praha, Staroměstské náměstí, 11 Same story for Tallin: There is only one "Tallinn, Pikk, 9" and only one "Tallinn, Lai, 8" But they both shares one building. And if I understand my Estonian colleagues, both of them are official, at least both of them could be found in official GIS maaamet. And I could add more countries and schemes and examples. Addresses are distinct, POIs are distinct, buildings are distinct, but their conjunctions are not. Maybe we just use term distinct for different things? There are many ways to have distinct addresses, and distinct objects with one or more addresses and If a developer have designed database with assumption that there could be only one address, and in real world he have found an object with two addresses, he have made a wrong assumption, not the reality is wrong.

Yes, you can use a part of it to address a building >(conscription number + optional street + optional locality name + >city), but anyway the official address is still just one. > >-- >Cheers, > Andrew
