Isn’t defederation the same thing? Users won’t disappear (and they can also create accounts elsewhere…).
Blocked users or communities can still interact on the wider site and with you, you just won’t see them.
Defederated instances are completely barred from doing so.
It’s the difference between plugging your ears when someone else speaks vs locking them out of your house and not letting them get close.
