Aren't many apartment buildings all coming from just a few IP addresses?

Yes, and this makes ip banning have false positives.

But ultimately it's worth it, you are responsible for your neighbours.

Nope.

I'm very much not responsible for snooping on my neighbor's private communications. If anyone is responsible for doing any sort of abuse monitoring, it is the ISP chosen by my neighbor.

If your CGNAT IP gets blocked then you are responsible for not complaining to your ISP that they're still doing CGNAT and that someone is being abusive within their network.
