I have been in the process of tweaking and improving the address locator for our city.
The Basic Locator has 2 Primary Role data sets. Address Points and Street Center Lines
I want Address Points to be the "primary" Primary role, and only fall back on street centerline data if a result does not match Address Points.
Currently, I am seeing multiple results because it is pulling from both simultaneously.
See the results below.
Is there a way to optimize these results?
The top result is Address Point the second is Street Centerline...
Thanks All

My understanding is that what you are looking for is how the multi role locators are supposed to operate.
From your image, it looks like the address points are missing city and state which the centerlines have. I wonder if that is causing the create locator tool to not see them as "identical" addresses and dedupe them.
I have never used it, but you seem to be describing a multirole locator

This is correct it is a multi role locator. Not a classic composite locator.
Following up.
I did look into the composite locator as it has more options for changing and setting the role order. Use A locator first than B Second if A has no results.
Is there a way to say If A has a successful result than don't give me the match from B at all? Rather than showing both as an option?
not sure, but if it isn't in the interface or the python section, I suspect not
