This is _actually_ a fork. A fork is a separate repository sharing history with another.
The GitHub UI's concept of a "fork" is unrelated to Git. GitHub doesn't detect you made a proper fork if you don't use its API or UI to do so, and requires contacting customer support to change it.
Not worth the hazzle as it provides no benefit.
