That would create the problem, that people won't able to ask if a feature is desired by the maintainer. New contributors would spend time on a PR and then learn that the original developer considers that feature to be out of scope and therefore the development effort would be wasted.

I understand your wish for removing the issue tab. But there is a downside to it.
