Github has “Personal Access Token”, Gitlab has both “Private Token” and “Personal Access Token”
Where would it make sense to use “Private token” instead of a “Personal Access Token”?

I would love to know the answer
Private token was like a personal access token, but you had only one, and was also a security risk. Note that I wrote was since private tokens got deprecated in GitLab 10.2 https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/10-2-stable/CHANGELOG.md#security-4-changes.
