Why would it matter if the IP block is simply being dropped?
my understanding is that they ignore IP address for logged in editors.
"...they ignore IP address for logged in editors.
But you have to get that far. It's so long ago since my last edit I can't remember my login details (that's if they'd be still valid).

It's not a total IP block. They only block editing. Try it out yourself with a public VPN.
"Try it out yourself with a public VPN."
Yeah, perhaps. But frankly that's an impediment that I no longer have sufficient enthusiasm to overcome. :-)
