Whole discussion here is about toxic behavior of people whose PR's are closed. It is not about closing yourself to contributions, idea is that everyone can still make a feature requests. One can still propose changes but there should be less pressure on integrating piece of code on maintainer, option to remove PR's on repo would do that.
I see why GH would not consider option to disable PR's because it is a killer feature of GH and it would be bad for their marketing when a lot of repositories would become 'read-only'.
