It probably doesn't mention Let's Encrypt because that's an extra opportunity for confusion since you do not (usually?) get Let's Encrypt certificates from this service.
This service has nothing to do with Let's Encrypt, you get certificates from GTS, so the connection would be that ISRG / Let's Encrypt was part of the work to develop ACME and so on. But that's increasingly ancient history. The goal of the work was that almost all CAs in the Web PKI would offer ACME (the people doing like a dozen issuances per month maybe not, but there's an open question about whether they should even exist) -- not just this one free service operated by a charity and here Google are following through.
I'd say that it's the same as if Zig announces each new compiler version or whatever and doesn't acknowledge that, yeah, Grace Hopper is in some sense responsible for the idea of compilers. [[ Hopper wrote the first "compiler" although today we would not consider her software to be a "compiler" but maybe a loader/linker. Anyway, the whole practice of having the machine do the boring job of writing machine code while a human just expresses what they wanted is down to Grace. Thinkers like Turing would have known this was possible in theory but Grace wasn't writing theory, she was doing engineering. ]]. Grace Hopper is important and worth celebrating, but it would be weird to insist on making a specific programming language that has nothing to do with Grace mention her every release.
I guess if you're an Oscar's speech writer going for that "I want to thank my parents, without whom I wouldn't be here today" vibe, then yeah. But otherwise it seems unnecessary.
