Conspicuously missing: why should I care?

I have reduced my online presence to much less than it once was partly because I don't want to feed this machine training data that I've worked hard to make for a human audience.

Like it or not I think "agents browsing the web" is the inevitable near-term future. Some agents will be malicious, many will not. In 2036, HN posters will be complaining about how such-and-such site only works with closed proprietary AI agents, and how their creaky old Mac M5 running Gemma 3 under Ollama can't browse the site properly because it doesn't follow the 2029 RFC XYZ for agent compatibility that nobody ever fully implemented.
