It'd be like hackernews blocking opera users if some spam submissions were submitted by opera users.
No, it would be like HackerNews blocking a 3rd party HN client that:
* Required that HackerNews trust the third party client service to provide user identity.
* Had a significantly higher level of abuse as compared to standard users.
* Required a disproportionate amount of resources to support for the given user base.
* (Least important) monetized HackerNews via advertisements.
