Interesting idea. Assuming competence on the part of your attacker isn't as dangerous as assuming incompetence, but it can be just as mistaken.

It could be more haste than incompetence. Anyway, if you think about massive brute force attacks like this, they are 'silly' easy no-brain attacks more likely to come from script kiddies who downloaded a tool someone else wrote than real attackers.
