I think it should be reciprocal, like in the real world. If someone blocks a provider, a provider should be allowed to block back. Maybe with some automatism. So it is fair and each party has information about what is going on. Or using real guns instead of these children games in the sandbox.
So if I run a web server at home and I’m constantly attacked by AWS IPs, I shouldn’t be able to block them without myself being unable to access the lion’s share of the web hosted on AWS? Doesn’t that seem sort of extreme?

I don't think your take makes any sense whatsoever. Beyond the puerile "I'll block you too", what exactly do you hope to achieve with this nonsense?
If blocking someone works in both directions, you won't block half the internet based on spurious reasoning, because you'll be blocked from half the internet based on your own spurious reasoning. You'll carefully consider who to block.
