@John I'm unsure about something here: I've done https://github.com/miraheze/mw-config/commit/71b1d6087ad5142eafebebb6c9500eb0e6679337, but this still doesn't allow edit since there's no 'edit' permission, but if I activate 'edit' wouldn't that override the EditingMatrix one, and allow users to edit every page instead of only their userpages?

You can’t restrict editing to only their own user page as far as I know.

And as far as I know, namespace restrictions are restrictive not permissive meaning you must be able to “edit” to edit anything.

Ok, that is what I thought as well.

Not technically possible with MediaWiki in this way as discussed above. There could perhaps be an extension for this, but I am not sure.
