Because forking IS the process on GitHub. People and teams with no write access to the main repo can fork it and submit a pull request.

In my experience.

In general, corps only fork a repo when they want end users to use their repo.

In the case of development by corp's developers, they just generally fork it themselves and submit PRs from their accounts.

so I can see the confusion.
