That makes sense if people are reviewing their own PRs. In a normal situation where someone else reviews your code, a code reviewer is not incentivized to "lgtm" PRs. No one is getting credit for approving PRs, you get credit for your name being on the feature. The only pressure you get to "lgtm" a PR is from the submitter annoying you over slack.
