There are small teams that are highly effective without PRs, given how little their owned areas intersected. Forcing the PR reviews there would only harm - any knowledge sharing is more effective at the whiteboard, anyway.

Depends if effective means the code is not maintainable or is full of bugs or gotchas that will only be caught later down the line. PRs are good even if it's just within the small team as a way to peer review and have an extra pair of eyes.

If their areas are really that separate, perhaps it's a good idea to do reviews for cross-pollination purposes. If someone leaves or has a bad meeting with a bus, at least one other person has some familiarity with that code.
