I always thought that kittens could leave mum from 8 weeks, otherwise I definitely would have left them there for longer. He's much clingier than his sister. His sister is affectionate but doesn't get so upset if she doesn't get it.Well they are just 15 weeks. They might not be fully potty trained. 9 weeks is too early to be leaving mom; it should have been 12 weeks. So even if he started of decent at it, the lesson might not have been solidified.
Many of the things you have listed him using seem pretty litter box adjacent, in the eyes of a kitten anyway. (Basket and box)
So that really hints to me that he is not yet fully litter trained.
My friend adopted a kitten too young too and she needed to put a spare litter in every room of her house for the first few months.

He's used litter box adjacent items but also soft surfaces like my bed and my fleecy muumuu.
He seems to know where the litter box is and I thought he was just doing all this out of acting up, so I haven't bought litter attractant. He watches and follows me every time I clean their litter box.
