>They catch 15% of the bugs in Javascript projects on GitHub. Using JS projects in GitHub is a really misleading sample. GitHub is used by all kinds of purposes, for example most coding bootcamps and institutes here tell the students to upload their code to GitHub. You have, for each institution, about 400 Javascript GitHub repositories each year, full of code written by true beginners. GitHub is simply a big container of code for literally everybody, so judging kind of bugs produced by looking at what it's inside the Github repositories is akin to judging how many gramatical errors book authors make by taking a look at all the MS word documents stored in Dropbox.
