No. When I say that bots exceed the amount of real traffic, I'm including people "window shopping" on the good side.
My complaint is more like, somebody wants to know the prices of all our products, and that we have roughly X products (where X is a very large number). They get X friends to all go into the store almost simultaneously, each writing down the price of the particular product they've been assigned to research. When they do this, there's scant space left in the store for even the browsing kind of customers to walk in. (of course I exaggerate a bit, but that's the idea)
