The "gaps that seem obvious"-notion describes exactly how I feel about pull request tooling these days. The status quo for PR review has very obvious-seeming improvements that have not been pursued (ex: de-emphasizing moved code vs. deleted code, making AI predict what comment will be left before dev starts typing, auto-reviewing trivial changes).

If I'm correct that PR review is currently much less efficient than it will be soon, it won't be because I'm smart or this is a new idea. It would just be because our company has spent last five years building code review tools, right place right time. Eventually there was enough infrastructure accumulated (and ambient events unfolding, ie OpenAI) that it became a small step to pass the edge of what PR review meant circa 2022.
