So you know that this is the lesser of the two evils? Seems like you're viewing it from client's perspective only.

No one wants to burden clients with Anubis, and Anubis shouldn't exist. We are all (server operators and users) stuck with this solution for now because there is nothing else at the moment that keeps these scrapers at bay.

Even the author of Anubis doesn't like the way it works. We all know it's just more wasted computing for no reason except big tech doesn't give a care about anyone.
