While the reasons people mentioned here are all extremely valid, I found another reason:
To sign in to Tip4Commit (which appears to be required to collect your money), I have to grant Tip4Commit read/write access to what GitHub calls my "Personal user data". Now I suspect if they change my name or something it wouldn't be the end of the world, I could just revert it, but if you hover over the little ? icon it reveals that it also gives them read/write access to YOUR SSH KEYS. Now that right there is probably why larger devs don't do this.
Someone, please please please tell me I missed something...
