This was built by GitHub Inc a very very long time ago.

The site puts the MIT and GPLv3 front and center with a nice quick informative blurb on them. How are they pushing MIT over GPL?

So long ago, in fact, that it was five years before their acquisition by Microsoft.

I don't see anything on there saying that non-copyleft licenses are better, unless you are in an ecosystem that prefers a different license.
