I believe Ray's assesment identifies the crux of the problem. Both parties on opposing sides of said debate need to engage in discussion regarding the matter. Hopefully through dispute resolution or the introduction of a third party, the conflict will be satisfied.

I would argue that X has the prerogative to reblock here, since Y wheel-warred (something that should not have happened) and after something that should not have happened, it's generally acceptable to reinstate the status quo ante.
At first glance that seems reasonable, if you accept my definition of a wheel war being reverting an action in a way that the originating admin wouldn't agree with. But really, once that's happened, it would be better for some third/neutral/senior admin to step in.
Better still for the two parties to start a dialogue. Both have established opening positions; they might still find common ground. If that doesn't work, then bring in the third person.
