If that logic is extended, the true technical solution is to turn the site off entirely.

What exactly in that logic in any way leads to turning off the site entirely? It's literally the opposite: narrowing down the bots by calculating probability of them not being real people using multiple signals and like Bayesian inference or something like that, it's pretty much a primitive machine learning.
I'm surprised there are so many trolling comments here.
