Why? I think the reasons for banning would be if they are being abusive, hurtful, or spamming. If they have done any of those things, then ban them. If they are simply irritating you, or have sent you something you don't want to respond to right away, simply don't respond for however long you want. There is no obligation to respond to anyone immediately. But seriously, what is the benefit of a temporary ban vs a permanent ban? Like, what would the circumstances be for each? Just curious. Side: No.

There really is no point. Someone is almost certainly not going to return to a debate that they have banned from, because why would they? By banning them, you have indicated that they are not welcome on your topic, so unbanning them would be something to make yourself feel better, essentially. Side: No.
