Arguably, the most valuable outcome of the pull request in the end is 
the patch, which is of course contained in the git repository. GitHub 
also sends email notifications if a pull request is edited. So if the 
account holder for GitHub keeps an archive of all mail from 
notifications@github.com, then also the big part of this discussion is 
preserved. I doubt that many people want to go back to see the arguments 
for a certain merge; this thread will also soon be abandoned, people 
will know that Python lives on GitHub and live with it, move on and do 
something more valuable.
