Sorry, I just could not resist taking it 1 step further when reading this bit of your post......

Using anything to interact with the game that is not really hurting others, is a third party tool. By OP's logic, that would mean the following:
-Using your hands to move your character. Banned.
-Using your eyes to see what is happening in the game. Banned.
-Using your brain to solve quick maths in the game for any kind of progression. Banned.

SE clearly needs to ban humans from the game because those things make it easier and we just can't have that.
