User-agent might be a useful signal but treating it as an absolute flag is sloppy. For one thing it's trivial for malicious actors to change their user-agent. Cloudflare could use many other signals to drastically cut down on false positives that block normal users, but it seems like they don't care enough to be bothered. If they cared more about technical and privacy-conscious users they would do better.
