Trust people to know what they're doing? A lot of PR reviews tend to devolve into almost anything but solving the issue at hand.

Fair enough. My experience with reviews has been they are quick quality checks, and at least for teams I have been on, were beneficial. I can see how they could become more of a ritual process than a beneficial one though, especially after seeing some other comments in the thread.
Surprising. We do a PR and review for nearly every block of work we commit. Most pass without comment. The ones that have comments usually have good suggestions, or actually catch an error.
