Because maybe victims don't want their harassers seeing or interacting with their tweets at all????????????
Why does it matter if a harasser sees your tweets? How can they interact with the tweets when muted?
By replying, quoting and retweeting. However, if they're blocked, they can't do that without putting extra effort (such as making an alt account).
Are you being serious or are you really just that obtuse? It's so damn painfully obvious you've never been seriously harassed on social media.
