On: Technical interview methods pale in comparison to playing Factorio with someone

For a simple reason. I don't want to select only people that have github projects. I think it is wrong.

If interviewers grade candidates based on github projects then I can bet there will be market for people to fake their projects. It is just reality.

What about creating incentive for people to work entire days, at work as well as on a private project? Is that ok?

You landed your job based on github project? Good for you.
