Aye, definitely - the cases where I've taken this approach have been ones where I had co-authors, so we were discussing low level details from really early on, and the PR served as the venue for coming to an internal agreement amongst the co-authors before presenting the shared proposal to everyone else. It's not a substitute for the broader PEP review and discussion process, but I do believe it can help reduce some of the noise in that broader discussion (since low level clarifications can be kept separate from the more conceptual reviews).
