Point 2 is true to an extent, assuming you aren't monetizing your traffic though, wouldn't earning citations still be more valuable than not showing up in Google at all? You should also consider that a large proportion of search is purely navigational. What if someone is trying to find your blog and is typing 'evgenii pendragon'. AI summaries don't show for this kind of search. Currently I can see your site is still indexed (disallowing Google won't remove a page from the index if it's already been indexed) and so you show in search results, but because you block Google in robots.txt it can't crawl content and so shows an awkward 'No information is available for this page.' message. If you continue to block Google in robots.txt eventually the links to your site will disappear entirely. Even if you really don't want to let AI summarize your content, I would at least allow crawlers to your homepage.
