The Documentation on swith2OSM needs to be updated.

and

both use http://{s}.tile.openstreetmap.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png

My site https://schools.mapthe.uk becomes unusable after 20 views due
to the tile usage policy.

I assume this will be the case for a multitude of sites because either
the JS library has a OSMTileProvider
built in that points to tile.openstreetmap.org or OSM layer is
documented using this url.

I don't understand what you are saying...

Those instructions are about setting up a web based map which shouldn't normally hit any policy restrictions.

Nothing in those instructions will cause requests to be sent without a referer or user agent so there shouldn't be any problem with a site which is built following those instructions?
