Half its pages start answering within 250 ms, inside the 800 ms a crawler is patient with. One fetch a page, the way a crawler sees it.

A sign is not proof. Hidden characters can carry a watermark or instructions meant for an AI, and they come off with a clean copy of the text.

The read stopped at its page limit, so pages no link leads to cannot be told from pages it did not reach, and neither is reported.
