Description

Describe the bug
The address field is currently accepting inputs that contain only numbers (e.g., "12345") as valid addresses. While it does allow letters as well, it should not accept purely numeric input, since a valid address typically includes both letters and numbers (e.g., street names).

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Navigate to a form with the address field (e.g., store creation or user profile)

Enter a numeric-only value such as "12345" into the address field

Submit the form

Observe that the form is accepted without any validation error

Expected behavior
The address field should require at least one alphabetical character in addition to numbers. It should not allow submission if the input is numbers-only.

Additional context
Allowing numbers-only input can lead to invalid or unusable address data. Implementing proper validation to enforce a realistic address format will improve data quality and system reliability.

Research direction

Start with the address fields in the store creation and user profile forms, then reproduce the issue using a numeric-only value such as "12345". Trace where submission validation is applied and update the address rule so numeric-only input is rejected while values containing letters are accepted. Verify the behavior in both mentioned form entry points.
