How do you carry on to the next bug-to-fix/feature-to-add when you're using Github Issues as your bug tracker? Or what if all you've got on your plate for the day is "review and merge everyone's pull requests to create our next release candidate build?" Or, even ignoring Github's extra features, what if you need to integrate a new prototype-stage third-party library, which is hosted on Github?
Or, to be less charitable, and to assume some incompetence on someone's part (though not necessarily the developer doing the work)--what if you're trying to use bundle/npm install to set up a working environment for one of your codebases, but one of the dependencies is listed as a git ref of a repo hosted on Github?
And honestly, this is all assuming you would "just move on to the next [whatever]." Most people will take any excuse to procrastinate. :)
