Anyone who looks at that person's profile sees a big message about why that person has been blocked. It's in big letters, so it goes beyond merely being information.

I haven't tended to use it, though I do use the "permanently blocked" template. (The way I see it, someone who has been permanently blocked deserves some shaming.)  I need to think about this a bit more. For someone who has only a short block, the big "blocked" message seems inappropriate to me. For someone who has a very long block, the banner does seem appropriate. The intermediate cases... well, I need to think about it.
