Blocking people isn't going to help y'all decide what version the page should be, and will probably just make it hard for anyone to work together.
I suggest you get rid of per-user 3RR and replace it with some sort of per-article revert rule, which results in article protection if a limit is exceeded. Then y'all can actually talk about content instead of quibbling over who deserves to be blocked and who doesn't.
Deserves... did something wrong... doesn't deserve... didn't do anything wrong.... 3RR blocks are punitive, and do nothing to protect the encyclopaedia itself y'all are always bringing up as an excuse to hurt people.
Not that anyone will listen to me....
Actually I don't care that much, as long as you are nice to the people when you block them... but that might be too much to hope for.

No. Protecting the article would stop uninvolved people who have nothing to do with the edit war from editing. I don't want ot be barred from editng an article just because someone else is an argumentative idiot.
