Well that make no sense.
You say people are "forced" to use FB/Insta because of the network effect. So they are joining because they can reach the people they want to reach.

But somehow, if we federate with P92, which is going to offer a bigger reach/network on the instance that federates, we are encouraging them to stay on Meta. I would argue that it's the inverse, it will show the users on P92 that they have alternatives to Meta where they can also reach the network of people they want to reach.

I think this could be a good thing for the Fediverse, as long as we maintain our principles, which we will do. If they don't behave then we can defederate. Blocking them before hand is just keeping the status quo, which is like you said forcing the user to use Meta because of the network effect.
