This rule is not that clear cut. A quarrelsome user cannot by picking
petty quarrels thus insulate themselves from administrative action.
The dispute must have been substantial and the block is good in any
event. Treating it as a "non-negotiable directive" is inappropriate.
It is more an action which can get you into trouble and possibly lead
to loss of administrative status in egregious and repeated cases.

Hello,
I think we need some mechanism to impress it upon admins that it
is not okay under any circumstances to block users you have been
involved in a dispute with. It's currently treated as something
optional by some admins. Usually the blocks they make are
justified, but surely posting to AN/I is a better idea? IMO, This
needs to be a non-negotiable directive, DO NOT BLOCK A USER YOU ARE
ENGAGED IN A DISPUTE WITH, no matter how obviously the block is
needed. This will save a lot of rants and hurt feelings.
