SEO. It really is not a big problem to spin up another repo with the same name. Takes time for Nintendo to create a new DMCA and people can find the emu quickly still. Figuring out which new name was chosen every 6-12 months would be harder than just making a new repo every 3 months.

I wonder if you could search based on their latest sha prior to the fork.

Then again anything that makes it easier to find makes it an easier target for Nintendo.
