[OSM-Science] Openstreetmap background in scientific paper

Dear all,
I hope this my first question is pertinent to this new OSM list...
We have recently submitted a scientific paper to an open access journal.
One figure has an OpenStreetMap background, correctly attributed.
One reviewer has argued that that figure can't be included in the paper
because OpenStreetMap derived products should be released under a CC-BY-SA
licence, while the paper will be released with a CC-BY licence.
My point is to consider a figure with OSM background as a Produced work (
https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Licence/Community_Guidelines/Produced_Work_-_Guideline)
and so not bounded to the SA condition.
What are your experiences and suggestions with this (or similar) issue?
Thank you for any hint,

Ale
