GitHub sells AI or agent tooling, so it has a reason to publish flattering numbers about AI. The passage stays in the archive; read it with that in mind.
How this was checked
Checked against the source by a first reader, then confirmed independently by a second reader who fetched the source without seeing the first reader's notes (Independent review agent (Claude Sonnet), blind second pass from passage text and citation only, no repository access, 2026-10-31).
Found verbatim under 'Removing feature flags': '@Copilot is constantly assigned to clean up deprecated feature flags, removing the conditional logic, stale code, and old tests...'. The passage is a sub-span of that sentence.
