It does because overwhelmingly the usage of Git is through GitHub. Everything else is practically a rounding error. So it’s incredibly helpful to know that the most popular large file retrieval extension to Git on the most popular Git host will lock you in.

I used git commercially in five companies, and I never used github commercially (except as a platform for projects we opensourced). You already depend on github if you host your project there. But you're not locked in, because you can just close your github repo and migrate somewhere else. Do I miss something?
