Because they _are_ still in your allow or block list. The allow and block lists are exactly that, they show people who are allowed or blocked.

I can't delete them now, but I want to keep those lists clean too.
You can not delete a contact from all your lists as long as that contact still has you on their contactlist. This is simply the way Messenger and its protocol works.
If you want to delete them from your block list then you must add them back to your contactlist or allow list. Or you must ask them to delete you from their contactlist first.

So I imagine a window, which can be accessible from Contact List Clean-up window, that shows my Allow list and Block list only with the contacts who are not in my Contact List. Thus I can scan ones who deleted me easily (maybe with a colorful text) and with a multiple selection can I delete them from my Allow/block lists.
To see who has deleted you, you can use the Contact List clean-up window and look in the column "has you".
Also, as explained above, you can not delete people who still have you on their contactlist. This is not a Messenger Plus! limitation or a lacking feature, it is how Messenger works.

Also with a tickbox an automated system to delete people from Allow/Block lists when they delete me would be good. So when they re-add me, I have the chance to be alerted again.
For now, you can check the Contactlist clean-up window "has you" column from time to time...

Also I am curious about one thing. Is there a limit for being added to Contact Lists of other people, i.e. how many people can add me?
When people add you, you will also have them in your allow list (or block list). And yes, there is a limit on the number of people you can have in all your different lists. I dunno the exact number, but it is very huge.

Edit: I forgot to mention something. That is; when we are cleaning our contact list with Contact List Clean-up, like holding Control key to block contact, for instance Alternate key can be held to remove contacts, who don't have us in their list, from Allow/Block lists.
I don't agree, this will make it way too complicated. And you already can easly see which people from your contactlist have you or have you not on their own contactlist (thus the reverse list), so you can easly select them to be removed which will result in cleaning them from all your lists.
Also, the contactlist clean-up window is not an allow list or block list, it is a contactlist... So adding features which should be performed on the allow or block list or things which will only show parts of those lists thrown in together with the contactlist will make it way too confusing as those are all different lists.
If you want to perform actions on the allow list or block list (or reverse list) then there should be new windows with those lists like you suggested, it should not be in the contactlist clean-up window itself, unless the contactlist clean up window is going to be redefined (which will be confusing to many people too).
