I don't blame Github here, their WHOLE spiel is open collaboration for community software projects. If want to share your project online but don't want to engage with your users as peers, then GitHub was never the right place to post the repo anyway.

Pretty sure the repo maintainer still wants to engage with users as peers (via bug reports and feature requests as they mention) just not through code contributions. In fact, if you only look at the "issues" framework, GitHub does a pretty good job of making things easy to use compared to the other bug trackers...

Doesn't make sense they'd allow you to disable Issues but not PRs if they only cared about engagement

This is rubbish. Github is massively more useful than dumping the source on your own webserver even if you do not want PRs. It would be a fairly simple change to simply add a button and remove the PR tab.
