Opcodes being shuffled on every FFXIV patch is so obnoxious. I don't understand these stupid half-measures they're doing that don't really stop ACT but just create annoying work for everyone on every patch.
Anything that makes bots more costly means that 1. some actors drop off (better money to be made elsewhere); or 2. they have to be more aggressive to recoup the costs. And more aggressive == easier to catch, usually.

If SE actually thinks things like this will stop the community though, I'd like to have them meet Niantic and ask them how that went for them :-) But bots are mostly a competitive market, collaboration is not in your interest if you're the one paying for the R&D.

(This kind of all breaks down with the existence of projects like Sapphire unfortunately, since at some point bots can really just copy from there and stop caring. But I would imagine Sapphire doesn't prioritize the opcode RE in the same way bot devs would.)
