i'll agree that in order for Github to become the personal CV (and it should!), it needs to account for all use cases (ie. profiles without any popular repositories).
but, as a hiring manager, i don't use Github as a measure for competence. i use Github as a measure for involvement in the open source community (competence usually comes incidentally).
having 30 projects with 0 stars does not really do anything for me that a single code sample through email could not. no matter how you categorize them.
