Right, but distributed git As Torvalds Intended™ doesn't solve those problems, so it's not related.

For the actual event we are commenting on, they have disabled all features other than code hosting and PRs.

It's impossible to disable PRs on GitHub, sadly. See https://github.com/dear-github/dear-github/issues/84

Interestingly mozilla has effectively done this here, by using a GitHub action that automatically closes any PR with a message explaining that PRs are not to be used.

It's very silly they have to do this, but at least they can I suppose.
