Until recently it even tried to help innocent users affected by such a block (i.e. recommending chinese tor users to ask for a soft block).
That was an essay, not policy.
The essay/guideline/policy distinction is not so important as this one:
Is it common sense?
And this one:
Does it help us make an encyclopedia?
And this one:
Is it consensus?
Anyone who cannot answer *those* questions should not be enforcing policy, let alone creating it, and if they are, I feel highly uncomfortable with that.
If it were all those things then it someone should make it policy. My experience with TOR proxies mirrors that of a number of other CUs; they are primarily used either for vandalism or for sockpuppeting.
