Good shit Oboro.

Also, I've been maintaining a Yoshi FAQ along with @Signia who did a lot of the early work on frame data. I recently added a "Punishment" tab, where I sorted everything by startup and then trimmed out all the things that are useless or aren't Natural Combos.

If you know how negative a given move is on block, you should now be able to refer to this guide to find your optimal punishes.
