Let's dial it back a bit though.

It's widely regarded that one of the major successes of Github 
was to make source control a social platform.

The problem being raised in this thread isn't exactly whether the 
information exists, it's whether it is in a presentable state for 
humans.

(The engineers here will have their eyes twitch and raise their 
fingers... It's cool. I get it. But Bugzilla is hardly a social 
platform, and isn't the best tool for engaging with people 
outside of this small community.)
