In the end,  threats,  including threats of blocks,  are not discussion.  If one says "well,  the rules aren't so clear,  let's talk about this" and gets back,  "you're violating the rules,  I'll block you!!!",  then the system isn't working.  If one replies to the previous,  "let's take it to talk,  let's discuss" and gets in return "there's nothing to discuss" ... well,  I've read WP's policy documents,  and you may disagree with me,  but I think they could use some revision and clarification. 
That's where this dispute began,  and how we got here.  One should not be blocked,  for expressing a contrary opinion in discussion,  on one's own talk page,  and informing an editor or administrator that one finds their actions abusive.  One should not be blocked,  for expressing a contrary opinion in discussion,  on one's own talk page,  by the person one is debating
