That’s an interesting take I hadn’t thought of. It’s a shame he didn’t elaborate so we can only speculate.
It’s not a mystery, McCain was big into civility. We can intuit his meaning here, instead of picking the words apart

Your block means nothing to me. A heartfelt expression of an emotion, any emotion, might move me
