Honestly I don’t think it matters much. As long as the block is manufactured right and uses cooper

Acetal resists heat better than Acrylic. Once Acrylic approaches 50 degrees Celsius it begins to fail.

It matters a lot. Acetal is harder, so there's little to no chance that You damage it in any way. Can't say that about acrylic - overtightening screws and fittings may cause it to break.

On other hand - acrylic allows You to see the inside of a block without the need to take it off - You'll definitely know, when it's time for some cleaning.
