This "Launch" business seems like just a lot of gm-speak smoke and mirrors with nothing to really get your hands on.
The “30 models by 2025” was pretty much smoke & mirrors when it was first stated and the automotive community pretty much took it in stride. Sorta like the “11,500 lb-ft of torque” for Hummer. Technically it’s true, but the way it’s defined it’s an answer to a question nobody ever intended to ask.

The 30 models includes product launched in China for China and also includes BrightDrop and Cruise. Even with the delays to Lyriq, Blazer, and probably even Silverado and Equinox, they probably still get to 30 by 2025 as they have defined it. GM was never specific about how many of those would be in US Buick/Cadillac/Chevrolet/GMC showrooms.
