What are you suggesting here except that Github is (essentially) lying to customers, making them believe something that is substantially untrue?
When I say "building an engine to cynically exploit the IP rights of open source copyright holders for profit", I am talking about a scenario in which they are sweeping legitimate IP concerns under the rug with bad faith legal weaselry and misrepresentation of how the product functions, etc., to chase profit. I do not see how that is substantially different from the implications of your comment, especially in the context of this subthread.
Could you enlighten me as to how your intended meaning substantially differs from my interpretation? If you don't mean to accuse Github of malfeasance, we probably don't have much to discuss.
