> Why not have an agent version?

Why have one? There are no benefits, and innumerable downsides.

> It saves the client agent and the website host time and money.

I do not care about the users' budget, if they don't want to spend a trillion dollars they can just read a website like everyone used to.

As for my own hosting budget, the AI scraper bots consume 2 or more orders of magnitude more bandwidth than the AI agents, it's utterly irrelevant to aid them.

> Also, part of agent readiness on this website is the AI equivalent of SEO

SEO is dead.

Click-through rates have crumbled. AI bots and agents don't provide ad impressions, so revenues are crashing as well.

And the flood of AI slop has made Google significantly more aggressive in "shadowbanning" anything that even remotely looks like what the AI sloppers are doing at any given moment.
