Moving off github is a good idea anyway, since they took away source code search for non-signed-in-users. I experience that annoyance every time I need to find the source of an error string in someone's github project.
It could be done in part for cynical registration metrics reasons, but I'm guessing search is probably costly and this helps reduce automated activity. I also imagine they might face issues with bots searching for certain patterns to identify vulnerabilities and leaked credentials. Why is it unacceptable for you to register an account to make your debugging process easier?
This incident alone means no company should have github as a mission critical component of their software development.
I know of no reason why a company should use public GitHub for private business.
Every company I have contracted or worked for, all used on-prem GHE.
