That's not true with PWAs. You can have PWAs that operate offline. The problem is that not enough web developers know how to build good offline-only PWAs. But trust me, they're coming!
My point was essentially that you can run a native app without internet access most of the time (and can easily block the app making calls out by switching the internet off or blocking the calls its making) but a web app you have absolutely no control over, you just have to not use it.
