That is a bit of a myth, it is definitely not true now days and I doubt it was ever outside of very early feature phones. I display the attribution text from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/osmlab/editor-layer-index/gh-pages/sources/world/OpenStreetMap-Mapnik.geojson (~38 characters) plus a logo plus zoom buttons at the bottom of the screen on essentially any Android phone I've ever tested (which for example includes a 2010 HTC Desire HD) and it fits . Does having to display the attribution constrain the layout, sure, but that isn't different than for example if you would be using google, so not a hardship that only we are inflicting (and naturally essentially every imagery layer has attribution requirements that are similar).
