If this kind of security by not being noticed is the plan, why not just have a trivial (but unique) captcha that asks the user to click a button with no battery wasting computation?

Because you can't sell that as a commercial solution that the open source software ecosystem provides free advertising to.

That works too, but not quite as well so it decreases the unwanted activity somewhat less.
