    Why wouldn’t they have no guardrails at all so they can just block non-compliant browsers? Isn’t that their goal?

      The devs responsible for this say their goal is to detect bots, but make sure it doesn’t harm people not using this tech. I’m actually inclined to be believe them. The problem is that those guardrails could turn out to be ineffective, or Google could decide to just disable them at some point.
