It will be different - a merge would be

main   --- A --- B ---- C ---- D
                /             /
              /             /
vendor --- X ------------ Y

cherry-pick will be:

main   --- A --- B ---- C ---- D'
                /
              /
vendor --- X ------------ Y

as you mention D and D' have the same contents, but D' has only one
parent. When searching for unmerged changes commit Y might be
reported, but that view of the history won't otherwise cause material
issues.

If there's another update in the future and it's merged we'll be back to:

main   --- A --- B ---- C ---- D' --- E
               /                     /
             /                     /
vendor --- X ------------ Y ---- Z

In this case Y would no longer get reported as needing to be merged.
