Blocking real users is not an option - but I can see that this would be a good setup if blocking bots were of the absolute highest priority.

In my case I am concerned about false positives since visitor experience is a higher priority than blocking all bots. Cloudflare, in my experience, do generate too many false positives when it's too aggressive. A very nice idea though

An increase in supply of housing would also dampen the demand for renting, thus decreasing the willingness of speculators to buy new rental units.

Most of your suggestions would cause other problems. The root of the current situation is seemingly a lack of supply which in turn is mostly due to government regulations. For instance, here in Sweden, it's very bizarre since we very m
