The post office will deal with all kinds of stuff, sure. But Web forms

has a street, a locality (sometimes), a post town, and a post code.

That’s all Royal Mail has to deal with, sure (with the possible addition of a named building on a street, which almost always seems to merit its own line), but don’t forget that there can be additional lines above that for flat numbers, office departments, buildings on a site, etc. In my experience, it’s not uncommon for business or university hall of residence addresses to have two or three lines before the street part.
