I wouldnt. knowing how "well" the STF functions, I doubt they have seriously considered this option at any point. it isnt easy. it needs a competent team of humans to review and assess.

it requires effort on their end. auto bot banning is far simpler and means the STF can still have their tea circle and not work for a living.

I am sure SE could come up with a competent team for it, and pay them... if they cared....
