>For a government entity, an unreasonably large amount of their work is on GitHub.

Perhaps GitHub shouldn't be the venue, but I think you have that backwards. Most government entities share unreasonably little of their code.

Yea my bad! I mean that "an unreasonably large amount of their work is publicly available."
Yes, and I'm saying that that is impossible because it's reasonable for all their work to be publicly available and not reasonable for little of their work to be publicly available. Why should the publicly funded work not be made publicly available?
I'd say it's quite reasonable that it's publicly available, and even that it's unreasonable that other governments' works aren't as much publicly available.

But it is surprising to see!
