In the current implementation a change request is either accepted or rejected. "Accepted" will merge and close the request. "Rejected" will close the request and cannot be edited. A change request cannot be re-opened after it is accepted or rejected.
In my experience change requests should be able to transition between open, in-review, closed states until it is either deleted or merged. Often there is a back/forth between producer and reviewer until the final product is accepted. Sometimes work projects are closed and then re-opened later.
