@pollita I see no problem with this. It's a setting for repository owners. Some projects don't accept PRs anyway, without this setting they would close them without looking or ignore them altogether.
The real problem I keep running into with PRs is that people would add features without asking first, and then get all pissed off when I tell them that I don't want this feature in my project. "But I spent time working on it!"
I have no idea how to address this with technical means tbh.

@pollita maybe some special tag for issues that a maintainer can add, that then allows anyone to open a PR that would close that issue when merged, but otherwise creating PRs is not allowed. But that is also suboptimal because it prevents PRs that fix bugs, and I still want those.
