I'm not necessarily disagreeing, I'm just skeptical that we can stop
this tide. New contributors are familiar with GitHub and GitHub only,
and for them, BPO looks and feels like a legacy system. And honestly,
for smaller projects, I've found GitHub a very effective place to have
discussions (e.g. most mypy design work is done there). Though I agree
that GitHub currently doesn't scale to the size of CPython unless you
work hard on setting up filtering (which *is* possible, just done very
differently).

I grant that it's an uphill battle. But even github has a separate issue tracker, we're just not using it. So even github black belts should be familiar with the concept of an issue tracker being used for a different purpose than code reviews are.
