Like why bother making stipulations in the rules for things that cannot actually happen given the way the game is designed?
People can't physically block you from entering/leaving a location, sure, but they can make progress harder or troll certain situations by doing things like standing on top of summoning bells or standing right in an area you have to interact with to trigger a cutscene or instance and refusing to move, or by standing inside a quest NPC. I see people doing this all the time, especially during seasonal events. Basically they're putting into the rules that they don't approve of this behavior.
