A little redundancy doesn't hurt - on the contrary, it makes spotting mistakes easier. And about deleted "in use" streets: If a house has a certain address then it has that address, even if the street which used to pass by the house is physically removed. There is no automatism in the real world that links house addresses to streets, so why should there be in OSM? If you remove the road next to a house node with an address, then the address will of course remain unchanged until this is done explicitly... just like in the real world.
