Sprints a cell phone company that charges users based on minutes (similar to internet providers bandwidth based charges), why should they care that their customer is accessing a website with a tool (cell phone or computer) that is using an inadequate browser (excessive reads on same pages and excessive cache attempts).

The key to denying this is too focus on the successive periods.
The same deny will catch some other bots as well.
