Disadvantage of node: you have to duplicate the address.  You need the
address on the business so Nominatim doesn't return multiple results in
the same general area that you cannot distinguish between.  But the
address includes the house number or name so you need the address
on that, too.  This goes against the principle "Don't repeat yourself."

Disadvantage of area (I've really seen people argue this): the shop is only
the part where customers go, not the storage areas or living space.  So
the shop should not be contiguous with the building.

There are no right answers, just answers of varying degrees of wrongness.
