It's only useful if you want to make troubleshooting problems more
difficult and require remote parties to contact you off-net.
Conditionals for such blocks are more difficult (abuse@domain
whitelisted isn't enough, you have to have a specific @domain which the
filters don't apply to).
I agree that smaller networks are the ones more likely to participate in
such things.
