Largest Contentful Paint measured two ways: one throttled lab run, against 28 days of real Chrome users.
Lab (Lighthouse, mobile)28.1sone throttled load on a datacentre machine
Field (real users)1.5s75th percentile of actual Chrome visitors over 28 days

The lab figure is 18.9× the real-user figure. Both agree there is a problem, and the field data confirms real visitors are affected. This is worth fixing. The metric failing for real users is layout shift (CLS).
