It seems you haven't understood the on-the-ground rule 5 years ago and you still haven't. For all intents and purposes there is such an address. Mail will arrive there, people can find the house when looking for it. It doesn't matter what the official record says. It doesn't matter whether the address should be there or not according to some authority. The address is there and it should be mapped that way. That is what on-the-ground rule means. It works in practice. It works well. And, yes, there are always corner cases. But that's no reason to discredit the rule.
