Question: Should uprn be applied to the building outline or to a node?

Yes ;-)

Some UPRNs have a 1:1 relation with a building or object (terraced,
semi- or detached house, telephone box, etc.)

Some do not (apartments; subdivided houses, etc.)

I propose we tag accordingly.

I agree. But, where multiple UPRNs are co-located with a single building, there's no consistent way to tell from the Open UPRN data which UPRN attaches to which subdivision. The open data has no z-index, so where you have a flat above a shop, for example, the data will give you two UPRNs for the same building but no indication of which is the flat and which is the shop.

For that, you need local knowledge - and it can't be local knowledge obtained from incompatible sources. So there won't be any easy way to look it up, as all the lookups are likely to be based on data obtained from MasterMap and AddressBase.
