That phrasing was obviously hyperbole, since 100% dependence isn't even a well-defined statement (you can not assign a simple percentage to degree of dependence). Using it as a point to argue against is misguided at best, disingenuous at worst. You should read it as "it is definitely dependent [to a high degree]" rather than "it is entirely dependent".
