As I mentioned, blacklists have different characteristics, some of which are desirable. A blacklist of tokens is (for the vast majority of use cases) orders of magnitude smaller than a whitelist, which means they can often be replicated into memory for in-memory lookups on the webserver.
This is a complex distributed systems topic, and there are applications for both.
