Even our largest wikis only see about ten self-unblocks a year, most of which are unblocks of self-blocks
This is an irrelevant piece of data. Of course so far there was very little incentive to block a sysop, since they could unblock themselves.
We may never discover the impacts of this change, or maybe we'll find out in 5 years about a wiki or two and then discuss for 5 more years how to deal with a "local" problem which has become intractable.
