I disagree, I think that this is precisely targeted at encouraging failed startups to open source their software for others, which has been rare in the past.

People can then tell their (former) CEO, "See this site, everyone is using the graveyard".

Encouraging that behavior is utterly different than just indexing the few that did so in the past.

I see no particular point whatsoever in insisting that it would be better as a vague indistinct generic gitub wrapper -- although if you have an idea for improving search of such, go for it.
