This is not to my knowledge a terminal condition or a good excuse. We
can all learn to boil slowly and gently. The message of the policy is

Absolutely. I completely agree with this.
However I was pointing out that an undesired side-effect of enforcing "no
personal attacks" with blocking could be, paradoxically, to give some
people an incentive to provoke _more_ personal attacks.
