Hello Gandalf,
I am not a member of the Wikimedia Maps team, but I assume that like many
other organizations that render map tiles, they do not pre-render these
tiles because that is a waste of disk space. Please refer to the following
page for more information:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tile_disk_usage
In particular, pre-rendering all tiles would use approximately 54 TB of
storage and majority of them are never viewed by the end user. So most map
tile servers generally just render tiles as needed and then cache them.
Hope this helps.

Hi to all.
We are currently using, for a project, your maps tiles (we like your
color schema)
As we would like to put them in our CDN to offload your servers, do
you have a safe
method to download pre-rendered map tiles or should I download the whole
OSM
data file and generate all tiles manually ?
If possible, we prefere to not generate all tiles manually, due to
lack of resources
on our side.
Any idea ?
Thank you
