I am not doubting you that these exist, what I'm trying to understand is
why. The images on the proposal page server do document that they exist.
But pulling out a list from OSM doesn't explain why they exist. They could
as just as easily be missed tagged. Can you describe the root cause of why
these structures ended up with two addresses? Conscription is one example.
However addr:conscriptionnumber is already in use.

What I'm trying to understand is why is addrN the solution. Should
addr:conscriptionnumber tags be retagged to addrN?

Being able to explain to future mappers when and why to use addrN is
important.
