I’ve always assumed each new input is tested multiple times on different humans for validation, but this might be incorrect.

i.e. even if the saboteur rate was as high as 10%, and I only showed images three times, only 10% * 10% * 10% = 0.1% of data would have three people intentionally picking the wrong answer. I suspect the rate is much lower, and 99%+ people just want to pick the right answer to get the captcha program to go away as quickly as possible.
Images with less than 3/3 matching results in this example would presumably be retested until you got the desired confidence level.
Then assuming your ML model isn't overfit/overtrained, you could even then assess your original input data to detect/flag anomalies for manual review.
