Yes, buildings under construction aren't there yet either. OMT is OpenSource though, so you can make a pull request: https://github.com/openmaptiles/openmaptiles

There is also the MapTiler OMT style for OpenMapTiles, which uses Vector Tiles. It is a close copy of the Standard OSM map style. It appeared at the same time as Shortbread on the osm.org website.

There is no in-built routing with MapLibre and MapTiler yet, but you can easily integrate something like openRouteService (https://openrouteservice.org/) in combination with them to get great interface/base maps/routes inexpensively.

To be clear, OpenMapTiles is kept up-to-date. The latest version was published in April: https://www.maptiler.com/news/2024/04/openstreetmap-data-pre...
Great news, nice to have choice when putting 3D maps on the web.
