What even is the relevance of this? So host a youtube-dl repo and reject DMCA requests then. Github, as it so happens, is American so it has to listen to America.

Relevance is "Having said that, can we please stop pretending like any of us weren’t using this to infringe copyright?"

I'm not pretending if I'm not violating, even if I'm downloading the copyrighted videos.

Well obviously it doesn’t apply to you then. I feel like this is really easy to understand.

The word "any" has a specific meaning. Most people in the world aren't American and most countries at least from my experience allow private copying.
