A few moving parts here!

The short answer is that I would not use robots.txt to block these kind of parameters. Search engines are quite effective at reconciling and de-duplicating variations by utilising the canonical URL tag(s) they uncover. That also means you’re not mistakenly stopping them from crawling to/through your URLs, passing PageRank/etc, and discovering new pages.

So it is nice to know how it affects the site and how you can tweak it for your benefit.
