>I guess software houses that keep old projects (for maintenance and future requests from clients) fall into this category, but who else?

Companies using micro services? Companies that don't want to have one big repository for their software?

What made our small team choose BitBucket over GitHub was the consideration that having to pay for # repositories would force us (and about everyone) to organise code not based on development convenience, but on $ convenience, which means put everything in a few very big and messy repositories.

Good point. Also, before having 1 repository was a way to avoid higher bill. Now it'd require to have just 1 user which I doubt anyone will try to do.

Then again with git this isn't so much of a problem, if you aren't wanting to play the blame game this works quite well.
