Indeed. In those cases community mods can step in and issue bans, but that is a stopgap.

It would be better to have some way to block a given user from interacting with your content, if not prevent them from seeing it.

Actually, just blocking them from being able to respond directly to comments between blocked users could be pretty useful.

If wanted the person could make a separate comment fighting perceived inaccuracies if so felt needed but would likely look petty in most cases and dissuade the practice.

I wonder what downsides could happen but still sounds pretty good if complicated an option.
