You're right.

The GitHub repo for Lua is
    https://github.com/lua/lua
It includes (not as part of the repo itself) a number of releases,
including:
    https://github.com/lua/lua/archive/refs/tags/v5.4.6.zip
    https://github.com/lua/lua/archive/refs/tags/v5.4.6.tar.gz

The lua.org site provides a tarball:
    https://www.lua.org/ftp/lua-5.4.6.tar.gz
I don't see any zip files on lua.org.

The zipfile and tarball from the GitHub release match each other, but do
not match the tarball from lua.org.

I have no idea, but I hardly think comp.lang.c is the place to complain
about it.
