Agreed. There are still more granular tools missing, but a core feature of a federated system is having instances with different ToS, different Codes of Conduct, and when two instances can't see eye to eye... just defederate and continue business as usual.

On Reddit, mods would ban people "by association" for posting on subreddits they seemed incompatible with theirs... and creating alternate accounts to bypass those bans was considered "ban evasion", a site-wide offense. That's not even a concept in the Fediverse.
