debate is about whether someone can arbitrarily declare someone else's

I don't think this is the subject of the debate either, at least that
particular statement of it isn't very good...
Yeah, it does suck a bit. Certainly a lot closer than "do we allow
people to troll", to which the answer is a resounding "no" from
everyone.
When we indef. ban a user's "single
purpose" sock and try to avoid
banning the primary account, we haven't banned *the user*
indefinitely.
Point. I think I keep getting confused between "block of a particular
account" and "block and effective ban of a user" - if nothing else,
that's a point in favour of single user single account! ;-)
