Fragmented packets won't work without ICMP.

Edit: here's a good page about the effects of disabling ICMP: https://www.rimscout.com/why-you-should-not-block-icmp/

Also there's some blackhole detection or how is it called.

However it's OK to block _parts_ of the ICMP protocol for security reasons, like echo and reply.
