If you use one solution to browse the entire site, you're linking every pageload to the same session, and can then be easily singled out and blocked. The idea that you can scan a site for a week by solving the riddle once is incorrect. That works for non-abusers.

Well, since they can get a unique token for every site every 6 minutes only using a free GCP VPS that doesn't really matter, scraping can easily be spread out across tokens or they can cheaply and quickly get a new one whenever the old one gets blocked.
