Who said they are scraping? I can confirm they are certainly paying for the Mojeek API https://www.mojeek.com/services/search/web-search-api/

Interesting, why should people pay for the Kagi API ($0.025/search) instead of using Mojeek's API ($0.001/search) directly?

I didn't say they are scraping. What I meant is that YOU should, if you're considering this at any serious scale.

Nobody said Kagi is scraping. The OP said scraping was free, and therefore, paying 2.5c per search is absurd.
