“If I want to crawl a website with a robots file that says ‘fuck off’, I have to ignore the robots file. If I want to use AGPL code as part of a commercial web service without creating my source, I have to ignore the license.”
Like, c’mon now. This is far from the weirdest open source restriction.
I don't see how any of those things are similar, I think you've missed my point. Those hypothetical authors are using robots and license files correctly.
Would you be OK if a repo had Visual Studio files that were designed to crash visual studio if they are used, just because the maintainer hates Microsoft? That's what this feels like, a deliberate malicious abuse of the intent that adding agents.md would otherwise imply.
