Address tags on bike rental stations that are only shown in-app?

I’d like to ask the community for their opinion on this changeset discussion.

The operator of a bicycle rental network shows addresses of the rental stations in their app.

Click to view the poll.

Arguments for adding address tags:

  • Tagging OSM objects with the addresses shown in the app would presumably facilitate querying/filtering rental stations.

Arguments against adding address tags:

  • The wiki currently intends the addr:* tag for usage on buildings only (and entrances thereof). The bicycle rental stations in question are not buildings.
  • The address of these stations cannot be verified outside the operator’s app.
