Please, increase the maximum number of blocked players, and maybe features

Would it be possible to increase the maximum number of blocked players to say 10.000?
The 500 is just too quickly filled up.
And maybe a checkbox for deleting inactive players from the list, say inactive the last 3 months or so?
Seriously, why would you need to block 500 players
There are features in Preferences that can help. Leaving teams and following fewer players helps to reduce unwanted messages. Also learning to play chess decently helps getting fewer unwanted losses.
How long does it take to block 500 players one by one, then checking their profiles and if they are inactive for more than a week then unblock them, then finding more active players to block to keep block list exactly 500 players long?
I currently have 47 players blocked, and I block people if they either dont resign and let the clock run out (And still are online) or if somebody is insulting or so. I've played nearly 20k games on liches so far.

To defend @xSilverBulletx he has played over 76k games, I can imagine that it should atleast technically be possible to get unlucky and encounter 500 "unfair or toxic players" with that amount of games.
If you're needing to block more than 500 people, then that's not an issue with a limit on blocked players. Report players @ lichess.org/report who you believe are not following etiquette.
