I pay for my email that gives me a lot of aliases and most of them have not been pwned yet. So with his tool I would be flagged as a bot. Honestly, doesn't sound like a great idea to be frank.

There must be large swaths of people that have either been careful or have specific emails that they use for certain purposes that haven't been pwned.

The question, what should happen if I haven't been pwned? Should I not be able to purchase the thing or would I face some annoying captcha?

I like Troy Hunt, but this idea penalize people with good habits and that is just something I can't support.
