    Bots are designed to do functions that actual players can do (to an extent). Simple commands, such as movement, is basically no harder to program/find on a bot than the speech macro itself. It really doesn't serve a purpose beyond hurting actual players by not allowing it to break AFK status.

    This, movement is one of the most basic things to code.

    Heck you don't even need to code it, there are plenty of macro/autohotkey/mice that will loop keys for you. So this would just penalize legit players for no reason.
