There’s no block system on the whole of the internet that prevents that. Even if they couldn’t reply to your comments, they could reply to anyone else’s, or post a top-level comment, or make their own post entirely. What do you propose? Don’t let them even type your name?
I think what OP is wanting is “block this person from seeing/commenting on my posts” in addition to “block me from seeing this person’s posts.”
This is certainly possible (and exists) on many platforms, but is much more difficult on a federated platform. It becomes actually impossible if your posts are accessible to the unauthenticated public.
N.B. I’ll withhold judgment on whether full-stack blocking is beneficial, but there have been cases where this style of blocking is used to amplify echo chambers (e.g. Reddit). There is no perfect system besides simply staying the fuck off social media.
