As someone who is watching the python/cpython repository, I'm very used to see 
lots of traffic. But lately there have been a surge of spammy PRs which are 
about the same, generally very trivial subject but individually fixing each 
occurrence one by one:
- Add coverage to X (tens of them, as separate PRs)
- Make `test_xxx` executable with direct invocation (tens of them, as separate 
PRs)
- Lint source with flake8, fix linting errors (stylistic changes)

And lots of non-committer PR reviews that only approve. Am I the only one who 
feels like this is only done to 'grind' commits (get a higher number of commits 
into the repository, and boast about it)?

In the past there were one or two people who would submit typo fixes, but most 
of them weren't making it continuously. The situation right now feels much 
worse than those.
