It's not that simple, since you are conflating the two concepts "bot" and "hack/exploit". While a bot is an automation for a task, a hack exploits a loophole in the game's logic. The latter get fixed over time, e.g. stealing pickups from other players is no longer possible. And then there is the following:

You make it sound like Slait came up with any of those features, when he and SandMann016 actually just took the community's open research and sold it. The commercialization of other people's work is the exact reason for the lack of new, open information and thus advancement of public bots in general. People like me are wary of thieves and don't publish their research anymore. I have researched and implemented dozens of exploits in my private, non-commercial bot, which I have never seen in any other bot. Slait got what he deserved in the end for ruining our community.
