  Yeah, I think they blocked me as well. I made a top-level comment with my reply to the version of their comment that was still in my inbox. 
  Kind of an illustration of my point that I hadn't even considered, that a user can block the OP of a post and then limit OP's discussion within their own thread!
context: The irony here is the Top thread is from someone who has me blocked. The only place I'd disagree is maybe there's some kind of technical limitation. Also it's a person who blocked me for misunderstanding their point... so be careful
