Don't listen to this person. They have no idea what they're talking about.
No one cares about this TOS provision. I know both startups and large businesses that violate it as well as industry datacenters and academic clusters. There are companies that explicitly sell you hardware to violate it. Heck, Nvidia will even give you a discount when you buy the hardware to violate it in large enough volume!
In a previous AI wave hosters like OVH and Hetzner started offering servers with GTX 1080 at prices other hosters with datacenter-grade GPUs couldn't possibly compete with - and VRAM wasn't as big of a deal back then. That's who this clause targets.
If you don't rent our servers or VMs Nvidia doesn't care. They aren't Oracle.
