What I really don't understand is why this discussion is hg v. GitHub, when it should be hg v. git. Particular hosting is a secondary issue
I think even the proponents concede that git isn't better enough to justify a switch in repositories.
They do claim that GitHub (the whole environment; not just the hosting) is so much better that a switch to GitHub is justified.
Github + hg offers far fewer benefits than Github + git, so also switching to git is part of the price. Whether that is an intolerable markup or a discount is disputed, as are the value of several other costs and benefits.
