Sorry, but how would this have prevented the xz backdoor? The article seems to be insinuating that it would have, but I don't see how it could.

I disagree, the article clearly states:

      Montgomery and others were careful to say that Linux ID 
      will not magically prevent another xz‑style supply‑chain 
      attack, but they argue it materially raises the cost.
