In my experience you can do reasonable bots cheaper than sending network updates to a regular player. Thats just straight up, but you can also tick their logic way less than every update if you want. Even more way-less if nobody is near them or spectating them.

Also some stuff you might want to calculate for them to use to make decisions can be shared among all bots.
