Same reason as to why corporate big wigs want to stick with Microsoft: Ease of use.

No, you are not. People regularly equate Git and GitHub, though.

Sounds good to me.

Had another job where my task was to maintain Perl scripts from the 90s. The company was crap, though, so I only stayed for half a year.
