It's weird, but two potential reasons:
* in case the repo gets deleted, at least you still have a copy
* some github apps on tablet might give you an easier access to your own list of repos

When you delete a private repository, all of its private forks are also deleted.
Deleting a public repository
When you delete a public repository, one of the existing public forks is chosen to be the new parent repository. All other repositories are forked off of this new parent and subsequent pull requests go to this new parent.
Yikes, is this a random process?
