PoW difficulty can be scaled, eg: all cookies must work 1s, but 2nd cookie from the same ip, might have to do 2s of work

ideally one would pick something a bit more forgiving than a linear function, to avoid penalizing too much users connecting from CGNAT

I think we're talking about 2 different things. PoW is annoying for basic scrapers but it really doesn't affect enterprise grade bot operations with access to unlimited residential proxies.
