| Majorly has said it well for me. Since the block was plain and obvious, and the warnings fair and repeated, I'm inclined to be dubious of claims of "abuse".

As Majorly says others will review the reason, the person is usually secondary. There are rules on edit and revert wars, and these apply to the entire community equally. 3RR is one of them.
