The usual theory on HN is that having to call means they're gong to milk you for money.
But I work with a SaaS product and the up front pricing is sort of irrelevant if only because the customers want a highly customized product and frankly you really need to know their business / work with them to find what they want to figure out what the price for implementation and customization is.
In our case it isn't a scam or a ploy for more money, it's just the nature of the beast / industry / and every single time it is what customers end up asking for (lots of customization and etc).
Now maybe that is the case for Github Code scanning, but also maybe it is very much a product that depends on how exactly you want it to work for you and that changes the pricing ...
