CDPs were (incorrectly, probably) imported several years ago, leading to

I don't know for sure, but Nominatim probably only pays attention to

CDPs in OSM have been an ongoing issue of discussion for a while.
NE2 stated that he would delete them all unless someone could show him
a single example of them being useful.

however folks may feel about CDPs, they aren't administrative government

wrong (which Paul Norman pointed out to me a little while ago and he's

Yup, I wrote here about CDPs getting tangled up with admin_boundary
