That would be a "properly designed" bot and not a poorly-coded one

That pretty much sums it up. Someone writes a quick and dirty python/perl thing and all the botters use it rather than writing something around a recent ssh library. Their thing is probably faster but leaves out a lot making them easier to detect or break.
