Yep, never said it was illegal! Purely a response to a comment questioning the business side, when it is a pretty by-the-numbers play. GitHub was slow on enterprise and bundling, so left room for a 'bottom feeder' to bundle &

I'm sure it's a pretty good one, but it's quite hard to trust more than that both on the design + impl side if you ever have tried to verify (vs just test) such a system. Think the years of pain for something much more trivia
