I think the argument is that Meta would hoover up and profit from posts from people who don’t consent to use it. AFAIK, you can’t block an instance from seeing your posts and comments, so the only real option is defederation.

You can’t block anything from seeing your posts and comments though. That is point of a free and public space. Defederation isn’t doing what you think it is

Sure, websites could scrape and whatnot, but having actual API integration is a very different thing.
