Why this?

It's evident that GitLens is not using ⌃⇧G for anything, so why make it more cumbersome to go to the Source Control tab by making it ⌃⇧G, G?

Filed as a bug because I can't see any logical explanation for this.

My guess is it's a bad default due to the keymap on windows that does utilize ctrl+shift+G a whole lot:

All these commands are instead used on ⌥⌘G on Mac. Therefore the ⌃⇧GG mapping in OP clearly seems like a bug / should be removed :)

Thanks for the report -- it is a bad default for the mac, since as you point out GitLens uses ⌥⌘G based chords. Originally it was Ctrl+Alt+G for Windows so it wouldn't conflict with the built-in Ctrl+Shift+G of the SCM view, but Windows treats Ctrl+Alt the same as AltGr (see microsoft/vscode#41225) any Ctrl+Alt+ shortcut keys must be avoided on Windows. And when I made that change, I didn't change the mac shortcuts but overrode the SCM for all. I will set the mac shortcut back to the default.
