Interesting. I think this might be one of those UK centric ones. According to the wiki, you're correct. However here in the USA, I think many people, especially new ones, would draw their house on OSM, and then tag it with house on iD. Here a house is the place where a person or family resides. Sometimes they're attached, other times they're detached.
