> whether GitHub sees this is a first-to-market play of some sort

Could be a response to GitLab, which had a similar offering for years, including unlimited free private repos.

Maybe, but this move looks to flatten GitHub pricing down to two tiers: enterprise and free, while GitLab has four pricing tiers and the enterprise feature offering doesn't seem to be there (Gold doesn't look too enterprise-y at first glance).
