I think the :shock: is more regarding the invasiveness of the filtering, not the complexity :P

Wouldn't the opposite be true, they would block access to https since they can't spy on it but allow access to http?

and what if i wanted to read my mail or check my bank? that's the whole point - they can't spy, so they shouldn't be blocking it unless they're nazis. which they might be :P

You sir...ARE WINNER!

Except I don't need a tracker or repo, because I use PAW to mask my tracker traffic. And here comes the ironic part: the uni provides us with a free online VPN service which I can connect to via HTTPS, and so I just use it to get all my torrents! :lol:

My point is, its not using torrents :)
Or at least its not supposed to be using them..

So the cause of your problems is likely to be something else than specific torrent blocking and https tracker wont fix it.
