Setting the indexable flag, and using blocks or opt-out signals, is a "denylist" permission structure; "everyone except these enumerated servers".I don't think we have a good mechanism for an "allowlist" structure; "only these enumerated servers". If I were making a search engine, I'd have a way for someone to opt in manually, even if their "indexable" flag was missing or false.
