For most people it would be full of petty and inane stuff like.... This person made 3 topics in 3 days, this person has an animal as a profile picture, this person likes to drink coffee, this person does not give away full value new release AAA titles. Stuff like that. But it is a good suggestion.

I might be alone in this opinion but I think that any new feature that improves the experience of blacklisting someone has the potential of turning into encouragement, and you generally don't want to encourage people to blacklist cos that could lead into increased toxicity in the community.
The way I see it having an official blacklist function is a positive because it makes the mechanics of blacklisting clearer to the users and also reduces some of the load from support, but anything beyond the bare minimum functionality runs the risk of decreasing the friction in the action of blacklisting, and that friction found in the fact that you as an user have to take care of keeping up with your own blacklist and why you blacklisted certain individuals serves as a dissuasive measure against excessive frivolous blacklisting. So it makes perfect sense to not make any improvements unless it can be proven to be an unquestionable positive thing, which is probably not possible, or only make teaks in the system when they equilibrate the balance of power dynamics, aka something that can bite the blacklister in the ass if they go overboard.

Maybe, that's for CG to decide.
And about that question, I honestly don't know, after all I'm mostly just speculating. I happen to generally dislike the concept of blacklists themselves and see their inclusion in this site as a necessary evil aimed to placate the user's desire for filtering out those whom they dislike, but that's my personal opinion and nothing more, so while I'm gonna take any chance to rationalize that improvements to the blacklist system is actually something bad I also don't deny that I'm very biased in an unapologetic way.
