So, why is organic maps hidden with the default anti features of f-droid? Which of these that have allowed my other installs does organic maps not comply with?

None of these look like something I'd want to turn off!

Non free network service. Organic maps uses the organic maps CDN to download maps. Which is not a free (free as in freedom) service.

For more information on anti features read here: https://f-droid.org/en/docs/Anti-Features/

Seems a bit silly. I think warning would work here.

Most people don't care IMHO and it ain't high risk lol

Droid-ify showed it for me, which imo is the superior F-Droid client anyway.
