If you trace a street or a feature, that is a derived work, and you can distribute it under a CC-BY-SA licence. But paragraph 2 of the CTs requires that you grant OSMF a much wider licence than CC-BY-SA, which you can't do, because you only have the right to distribute your derived work under CC-BY-SA.</div>
