Maybe Gryff is referring to the fact that any Solar can get "Should The Sun Not Rise" and reinstate Holy as a thing? So, as long as there are Solars, the Ebon Dragon should be scared?

That was apparently an oversight, as the book was written before the Dreams of the First Age errata. Charms that allow Solars to sustain Holy Charms on their own, such as Zeal (I will never call it that other name, and you can't get me to), should allow those to function against the Ebon Dragon normally.
Should, because by a strict reading of the book, don't.

This is a known issue, and, IIRC, slated for errata. The fact is that while the Aidenweiss was published before RotSE, it was actually written afterwards, and should be considered to overrule Return.
Edit: And Dreams errata, too, I guess.

Well, until that loophole is formally closed, we have evidence that Primordials can in fact become immune to their weaknesses.
