yes you are required to have it on you at all times, it's not just for border crossings. It's the only valid id outside of your own country.

But not every country requires people to carry IDs at all times, and even countries that do may not punish tourists for having some other form of ID plus a willingness to retrieve their passports if necessary.
This was definitely true when I stayed at the Castle Wolfenstein Airbnb.
That's not at all true.
