Yes, this is indeed an excellent resource. I used it myself for several months myself. In fact, I still havet this layer on, as you can see in the screenshot above. This is still the best option for iD users, although I would strongly recommend to use jOSM for any work with addresses.
The biggest difference between the two solutions is speed, convenience and accuracy. Typing postcodes simply takes a lot more time, effort and leads to errors.
By the way, there are postal areas (e.g. Sheffield) with tens of thousands of postcodes ready to be transferred to existing buildings. That’s a low hanging fruit for anyone who wants to get involved.
