On the other hand, they have an insane fixation on using the numbered street grid even in suburbs that are built with culs-de-sac and bays rather than a grid. As a result, many street numbers are broken into, and I swear I am not exaggerating, literally 10 or more pieces, and a single bay or cul-de-sac may have several street or avenue numbers along it.

This is the same as Seattle/Redmond.  Seems crazy to me.
