Well, if your argument was true then none would use pascal/Delphi, as they'd only use Java and PHP.

Fyi, cloud native means that your application is written to utilize cloud services such as S3, dynamodb, dynamic scaling etc. It often comes with vendor lock-in and is not necessarily the best choice, but calling it a pure marketing term sounds a little ignorant

I think that more often than not the effort to avoid vendor lock-in isn't worth it, especially when it is very common for your "generic" wrapper around cloud services to over time bake in assumptions specific to the one platform you ever run it on and be, in effect, locked in anyway.
