I imagine a lot of such pull requests wouldn't be merged.

I submitted one, it may never be merged, but at least now I can say I tried. And isn’t that what open source is about?
If it requires little effort, it's fine, but generally before working on something one should ask the maintainers whether the status quo is deliberate.
They are free to reject the pull request. The worst they can say is no.
