The methodology is pretty silly. It rewards activity and popularity.
A lot of critical infrastructure software is not active and not often spoken about!
Case in point: The https://www.cip-project.org/faq project highlight the needs of very-long-term support for OS components that run on critical infrastructure such as power stations.
The https://www.cip-project.org/faq project is based on Debian. Very little of it is on github.
