    But if you tagged it on the 1,000,000 hectare property and it was
    then displayed at the centroid you'd never find the access to the
    property as it's centroid is not even close to the road where the
    address is.




Yes, but more intelligent software could see that it is a huge object with this address and ask where exactly you want to go. Huge objects like this tend to have several entrances, obviously a centroid will not work well. Also, a software could recognize automatically which entrances are inside or on the perimeter of a given (area) address. All this will not work with just a node.



Using that logic the address should be on a node at the main visitor entry ... only visitors will need that level of detail .. regulars will make their own way once in close proximity.
