One can add user rights to other users, and the other can't. That's more or less it. Looking at this new right it's the same sort of thing. If I can trust a user to delete pages, protect pages and rename images, I don't see how I couldn't trust them to give out blocks as well. I really don't see a level of trust where I could trust them with maintenance issues, which could be abused, but not with blocking rights.
