+The Blur family of templates is only intended for use in the navigation boxes or when a list includes a significant spoiler you wouldn't expect on the page. This is in part because there are accessibility concerns with blurred content, as well as usability concerns: it's a lot harder to use a page if large parts of it only reveal themselves when hovered over!
