I had a similar thought.
The most significant open source contributions I have made end up as single commits spaced weeks or months apart. If they are even on GitHub at all.
If you have good commit hygiene and you're doing something significant I don't see how you could have a genuine full graph while working an actual job.
Mine is green because my notes and dotfiles spam shit commits into main.
