You could say the geocoder has made a best guess.
So more than one "address" could end up at the same lat/long.  The lat/
long may or may not represent any real address at all; perhaps it is
the centroid of 29440.   Then reverse geocoding cannot lead to any
exact real address, though it could suggest the nearest similar real
address that it knows about

which seems to be within just a few metres of the lat/long you asked
for

or perhaps the district

etc.

The geocoder does not know about every possible address (or variation)
in the world.
