You are correct in that GitHub does not allow customization of the
permissions, but those with the  "Triage" permission are unable to edit
comments or lock conversations. In order to do either of those, the "Write"
permission is required. Compared to a normal contributor, triagers are only
able to add labels, close, reopen, and assign PRs/Issues.
