What's the point? You can tell if someone is using Tor anyways from their IP.

Tor is not Tor Browser. Detecting outdated Tor Browser version would help you detect well-known vulns. Detecting non-TBB browser over Tor would suggest that side-channel attacks are available to defeat onion routing (eg. WebRTC leaks).
If you want privacy, use Tor Browser. It's the only privacy-friendly browser out there. All others have many holes and leaks and very little intentions to close them. Although Firefox has a "Tor uplift" project upstreaming patches from Tor Browser into Firefox's strict privacy mode.
