Which part does not match your expectations?  Is there an out-of-date
source that we should update?

The requirement to attribute OSM and the License, are requirements of
CC-By-SA and haven't changed in years.

I only offered one way of acquiring the map data, namely using a
screenshot from osm.org, but there are many other ways to make a map
from OpenStreetMap.  I apologize if you thought this was a restrictive
list of the only way to create a map from OSM and meet your license
obligations.
