I dunno, I'd see it as the opposite. The bigger the scale the more cost effective it is to have more redundancy. I can't remember the last time Google search wasn't working or saw news about it being down.

The fact that github keeps going down while being a huge business shows they still need to work on having more redundancy, something that's expected of big services like theirs.
