I think that this is not enough. Because they mix data they should
declare which data is from where. There should be a link to website
(or a pop-up) with a text like this:
It would be great if they did but nothing in the license requires them
to, the attribution requirements are fully satisfied by this.
In general a tile layer is going to be rendered from a collective database, of which part of is a derivative database licensed under the ODbL. They're obliged to disclose the derivative database, but not which parts of it are used, and nothing about the other databases in the collective database.

In general rarely any OSM based map out there tells exactly where OSM
data is used and where not, even OSMs own 'standard style' map fails to
mention the use of non-OSM data.

The style documentation does cover other sources. Also, the other sources are all under ODbL compatible licenses anyways, so the situation is a bit different as the entire set of sources can be released under the ODbL.
