I haven't dug into the docs much. This really does return vectors? Because all of the OSM servers and services I have seen return tiles that are bitmaps, which for the type of data being displayed always seemed like a rather moronic way to do it.
- Yep, vectors. See https://github.com/onthegomap/planetiler
  
  Neat.
- They generally intend to move to vectors afaik. There was a blogpost and call for donations by them a while ago.
