Speculation: Blocking with the sword reduces damage taken from enemy elemental attacks (Arc, Solar and Void). It is especially effective in reducing the damage of the Damage Type that is not the same as your weapon's damage. For example, Arc Edge deals Arc damage. Blocking with it reduces Solar and Void damage more than Arc.
Speculation: Blocking drains energy, the sword's "ammunition" or resource.
