    Their names can be considered evidence when it's been part of a consistent pattern since the earliest days of the game's life (The other commonalities being that they wear the exact same gear and constantly stack on top of each other) and it's become something of a "If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck" situation at this point.

    Heck, even the less obvious gathering bots exhibit enough common traits that I can identify them with minimal observation time. Just look for the jerky, repetitive movement (Bots look like they're playing a game of connect-the-dots with how they move precisely between specific coordinates), hopping in place when taking flight (This seems to be a limitation of all bot clients, as I've literally never seen one jump out of movement into flight like a player does), and prolonged periods of idling by aetherytes between nodes (It makes more sense to just wait by the next node, but you'll see these guys warping all the way back to Mor Dhona/Ishgard/Idyllshire/etc even if the next node is in the same region).
