Current policy prescribes a 24H block for 3RR violations on both editors. I don't see a similar policy on incivility. That is the difference.
It's an interesting idea. If all civility blocks were limited in length to 24 hours, then *bans* (o longer blocks) for ongoing incivility could get dealt with at another level? Equally, appeals against civility blocks could see them overturned (to avoid people using incivility blocks as a weapon in a dispute). At the moment, people disagree over how long an incivility block should be. Maybe it should be more like a slap on the wrist and serve your time, than either "ignore" or "warn" or "block indefinitely"?
