That's too simplistic, Jinora, and assumes that energybending, when used to take another''s bending abilities away, can only be utilized in one position/form. And we don't know that, yet. Everyone was saying, "Amon can't be energybending because energybending gives off a terrific amount of light!" But--wait!--we just saw Aang energybend Yakone today, and there was no light whatsoever. It's still a possibility that Amon is an energybender, and it would go to explain how Amon shook off Tarrlok's bloodbending (if he can control the energy within his own body well enough, it could be possible to overcome the effects of bloodbending, either by utilizing his own chi or by "expelling" the effects of Tarrlok's bending somehow). Frankly, I don't see how some advanced form of "permanent" chi blocking could allow him to do that, since chi blocking would appear to be relegated to affecting the chi in ANOTHER's body, by definition.
