I'd be interested to know whether this idea came forward from a POC. I don't think this would've been the first thing that came to mind for me if asked what Github could do in response to the #Blacklivesmatter movement. I personally don't feel this will accomplish much for POC but I guess changing it won't harm anything.

Probably not. See point 4 in my post.
