Blocklist to me means a list of blocks, like blocks on a disk. I am not a fan of using it as a replacement for blacklist.
I am in favor of denylist, though. I have never liked blacklist as far as I remember. I could never remember whether black means let it through or stop it.
I get similarly confused with "in the red" and "in the black" - which one means I'm losing money?
Don't even get me started on the CIA's black phones (which are green) and red phones (which are black). At least I think I got that right.

Colors are not a good way to name things.
