Taking peoples front wheel out deliberately by skipping into them with the rear is not on.
I hate this kind of play.
It's as bad as trying to take someone else down or fucking their bike up as you're falling.
However if you're blocking them from turning / shooting, not allowing them to turn and they ride into your back wheel, I feel that's different.
It's like when someone's winding in and out and you slow down to stop them getting through.
At the end of the day, it's up to the ref to stop bad play and make some kind of warning, otherwise people will never learn.
We can all learn / teach by making these things vocal.
