Does the product still work and provide the advertised service? If yes, then yes, it’s irrational. It isn’t like leaving GitHub is a multi-month process. It could be done in an instant.

It’s evacuating a house because there might be a fire in the future.

I think of it more like leaving a planet because the galactic empire just bought it and is about to hollow it out to build starkiller 2.

If it can be done in an instant, why wait?
