I agree 100%.
On the Hellsite, it was the hellsite, so I didn't see the point of blocking people unless they became aggressive towards me.
On Mastodon, I have adopted the strategy of blocking when my sensors first detect gaslighting, unprovoked attacks, or anyone who defends antidemocratic, racist, homophobic, transphobic views.
Also, weirdos that ask personal or awkward questions will get blocked immediately.
And also followers with handles like "mr3247895k45@"
I just don't have the time or inclination for that shit anymore.

That was my birdsite policy. I blocked far more than I followed.
Still my policy here, but not needed anywhere as much.
