The point he is trying to make is that an IP ban can also affect innocent users in the crossfire, if they share the same IP. For example because of CGNAT
Oh. Well if so, that’s true. Although if you’re not going by whole blocks the effect is limited, and can be solved by any kind of appeal process. I’m guessing most unfair bans are intentional.

What’s the point? OP mentioned that there’s still ways around an IP ban in theory. They’re still widely used to great effect in practice.
