The admin interface should already ignore blocks and mutes, and I'm not sure we want to special-case the user interface side of things for moderators.
So it can be a pain to look up info on users blocking an admin account: you can see reported posts, but you can't access context/other comments etc. But at the same time, this also goes for users posting followers-only, so I don't think we should treat admin users unblockable. Improving moderation tools: sure. Solving the social issue of a user deciding to block their admin: not a thing in need of a technical solution.
Pitch
An option in the instance settings to prevent local users from blocking the instance admin (or let them block, but the admin will still see their profile, posts, etc. Maybe behind a "this user has blocked you. view anyways?" screen)
Motivation
I just had someone create an account on my instance, and then block the admin account. I can't moderate if I can't see their posts...
