The first thing that came to mind when I saw this project wasn't scraping (where I'd typically either want a less detectible browser or a more performant option), but as a browser engine that's actually sane to link against if I wanted to, e.g., write a modern TUI browser.

Banning the root library (even if you could with UA spoofing and whatnot) is right up there with banning Chrome to keep out low-wage scraping centers and their armies of employees. It's not even a little effective also risks significant collateral damage.
