It's highly likely that the street level floor would be named 'Ground' - so
if software needs to know this, that would be a good starting point. It

That's funny. In your previous example no floor is named 'Ground'.
And for some buildings .. the true 'ground level' is a quite a slope ..
spanning some 4 'levels' of one building I know.
So the declaration of one level as 'ground' is fairly arbitrary.

Why would floor order be specifically required within OSM other than
where they are related (e.g. stairs)? Why numerify a labelling system ?
For navigation .. in the vertical plane?
E.G. "Go up 2 floors to level henry."
Or for ordering or the vertical display (to ensure the levels are correctly
ordered from top to bottom (or the other way if your so inclined {pun}).
