We could turn this into an advantage of Open Data and OSM. Validation of other datasets makes them more accurate and in turn useful to everyone, including the original publisher. > What it would be useful for, though, is adding the technical data to > a chargepoint that has been mapped by on-the-ground observation.

That could easily be fitted into on the ground verification tools like StreetComplete. Or perhaps a more visible option is to make notes for the ones that aren't matched to existing data allowing local mappers to check and add them manually.
