Just because a service isn't overrun with bots already doesn't mean it couldn't be 10x worse to the point where twitter becomes usable if existing mechanism like blocking non-VOIP numbers didn't exist. If they got rid of that constraint I could easily spin up a million bot accounts (captcha bypass is trivial) if I wanted to.

I only killed 10 people, officer, not 100; therefore, I'm not a criminal.
