Not necessarily. These bots are there anyway. They will attack no matter what, you might as well be aware of what they are trying to do

I use a custom cms on 100+ sites and for a while I just responded with a 200 no matter what. Most of the time it would be wordpress, drupal exploit attempt, so I served it a fake wordpress login... bots would then attempt various exploits... It was very informative to see how they tried to do various injections, tried to fingerprint software, etc. I then would aggregate this into useful info and even filter from logs humans from spiders (they don't always announce themselves)

As an admin, it's good to know what is happening - whether you pay attention to it

Sure, Tons of Toys.

Also wrenches, spare parts and arguably potentially saving millions of dollars by storing generic building material as opposed to rarely used parts. Potentially life saving like in Apollo 13. No round peg for a square hole? no problem
