For starters, David's idea was not about grouping segments of a street for the sake of it, but to group segments of a street AND house number nodes. Furthermore, this could help routers in "finding a street", matching one relation rather than a handful of ways. I agree with Elena though. While I see the point in not having a dedicated relation for housenumbers (which associatedStreet is), I agree that route doesn't seem the most appropriate choice. I wouldn't be able to suggest a better alternative, though.
