It is more convenient to use GDAL for automating creation of MBtiles from WMTS/WMS.

Download the WM(T)S.xml
use GDAL to extract the layer you want: gdal_translate "WMTS:wmts.xml,layer=Road_27700" wmts2.xml -of WMTS
Convert to MBTile: gdal_translate -of MBTILES wmts2.xml os-offline.mbtiles -projwin <ulx> <uly> <lrx> <lry> -projwin_srs EPSG:27700
Add overviews: gdaladdo os-offline.mbtiles 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512 1024

Correct.
