It's not because they're owned by Microsoft, at least not in the way you think.
It's because GitHub Actions is rebranded Azure Pipelines.
That a team at GitHub has been given a pile of Microsoft authored code is honestly much more concerning. They don't seem to understand it in its entirety either.

- jsmith45 5y agoYou can also compare the source code structure to the Azure Devops Pipeline agent's to tell pretty easily that the github runner is a fork what has been edited to process the somewhat different format of the actions YAML. https://github.com/microsoft/azure-pipelines-agent/ https://github.com/microsoft/azure-pipelines-agent/

- CardiBFanatic23 5y agoMost of the people who worked on Azure Pipelines got transferred to GitHub to work on Actions. You can even see the same names of developers contributing code to both the GitHub runner and the Azure DevOps agent.
