what do you mean by: if it works? All alternative ways to the well
established addressing scheme don't "work". It's easy as that.
place=locality is generally used to give names to localities that don't
match other established features (can be lots, hills, named localities,
etc.), IMHO a locality-node "name=45-29" to express housenumbers is wrong.

as soon as someone else is editing in your area it will be conflicting
anyway. I just don't see the point of entering useful information in a way
it will not be retrieved...
