This still 100% relies on their servers being up, which is no different than a website. So you absolutely still have to worry about their servers being down, which makes it pointless.

Exactly. The author appears to be telling you (you being jaywalk) that the application only requires talking out to Whois servers, and does not rely on any application/webserver…

You concern as stated does not apply.
