I'm inclined to agree with your thoughts on poor design. I think the inconsistency is also troubling. Why are they removed just from the Team experience but not the underlying group?

I've also created a Uservoice for it but realise this will probably get lost in the noise of other request - https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/38783713-stop-teams-eligibility-criteria-removing-blocked-a
Thanks for your thoughts and input here. Hopefully something will change either on this specific issue or around status notifications in general.
