I think we actually block far too much already, especially with user blocks. I'd suggest that most blocks actually tend to make it harder to find and revert vandalism.
Huh? How?
Because the blocked user can no longer edit under the same username and/or IP address. It's much harder to find vandalism when you don't know what accounts to look under. Just look at what happened when Wik was blocked. It made it harder to find and revert his/her bad edits, not easier.
