Why block 25 inbound?

There is no particularly good reason, honestly. About the only reason to do so is if a host is compromised, and the attacker wants a standard promiscuous relay. Relaying can nonetheless be done on a compromised host, as the method of injecting the messages need not take place over port 25.
