To block uploads would require a technical changen to block uploads only. Assuming that file uploading is a separate permission, why would you not be able to set it to false?

Setting user rights is not the same as permissions. User rights are named groups of sets of user permissions. If you don't have a user rights group with file upload off, you can't turn it off with user rights. Wikia would need to create a new user rights group including file upload off or a new group with just that permission and off, but they probably don't have either case already.
