I'm surprised Github allows the hosting of binaries of closed-sourced software. What is the point of Github when there's no source?

I suspect most of GitHub's usage (by repo count, at least) is for closed-source software. It's just in private repositories.
It’s a strong advantage for individual developers like me to distribute binaries on a trusted platform without any hosting cost.
