I am not sure the two problems are related given that David does not
seem to be forcing topologies via iw block commands.

Keep in mind that blocking is directional:  if you issue iw
plink_action block on node A, only incoming traffic from B -> A will
be blocked.
In most cases you will also want to block A on node B.  Could you try that?

How do you restore the link?

We routinely test linear topologies like the one you describe by
blocking traffic both ways.
That should work.
