Is there a writeup on why they choose to destroy the history?

You can recover the history using their tooling build on top of their bugtracker and GitHub. Specifically they capture the discussions and all small changes over time in their skara tools and are prepared to leave GitHub if needed. They had multi de adres experience and had multiple prior code repos. Still do if i understand as the Oracle team has the sun and bea code repositories pre openjdk preserved.
