Your copyright notice and the MIT license text are not contained on GitHub but on a separate MIT license page (http://desandro.mit-license.org/). This actually poses a problem for automated FOSS compliance processes. While code scanners will pick up on the string 'MIT' in the README.md, your copyright notice will be systematically missed.
Would you please consider changing your license information so that your code can be more easily used in compliance with the license? A good method for declaring copyright and licensing is https://reuse.software.

Full agreement to these concerns, and the suggestion to adopt REUSE instead.
The problem of storing such information in another place than the actual repository is that this is easy to get out of sync, and that the other source might not be available in the future. Storing it online is similar to storing it as metadata in a version control system, see here.
