I would argue that the fact that GitHub themselves made the same error really tells us that yes the UI makes it way to easy to do this. Considering the number of repos on GitHub I wouldn't be surprised if someone made the same error every a couple of weeks (but typically not with such high stakes).

I would also say that post does not come across to me as he is only blaming GitHub.
