I mean, I think the whole idea of only showing websites with unminified source available is silly, but I'm willing to think about the idea ;)

I think a source map is a better approach than a GitHub link, is was all I was saying!

It also probably wouldn't be too hard to make some heuristics to figure out whether scripts are unminified and not require a source map. It wouldn't be 100% accurate, and it wouldn't avoid some form of intentional obfuscation that still uses long names for things, but it would probably work pretty well.
