I agree there are cases where entities don't want things scraped that really should be scraped to preserve the history they'd like to rewrite.
My concern is that tools like these that use circumvention by default become the go-to when someone needs scraping and makes life hell for us running sites on hardware that's enough to service our small customer base but not an army of bots.
