Is there a reddit rule against subs restricting the use of blocking?

The situation I am talking about this.

A debate/conservation between users is following all reddit rules and sub rules. Everything is conducted in good faith, until one of the users involved decides they must "win" and get the last word.

They respond and then immediately block. Preventing the other user from responding to their post. Even if that post misrepresents the other user or is even insulting to them.

The user who does this has form for such behaviour. Blocking multiple users to get the last word.

Are mods in subs prevented from adding a sub rule, which bans such abuse of the blocking system?

This question comes up after hearing women talk about their partners. Partners who can't be bothered to help with childcare, partners who don't bother with house work, who are lazy in bed, who can't be bothered to exercise or put in any effort.

As a man I tend to hold my tongue when women talk about such things because I have learnt that women don't like their partners being criticised but the question I have posed here is always the one I have to hold back.

These women are attractive, they are intelligent, they have options. Why do they put up with it? Why tolerate a partner who can't be bothered to put in the slightest effort?

If I was a woman I would dump such a man in a heartbeat, yet large numbers of women voluntarily tie themselves to a human equivalent of a millstone, when they could do so much better.
