I would have to explicitly send StartDigging and FinishDigging packets hundreds of times to do any real damage. That's not just "break the block at x, y, z", I need do all sorts of calculations involving tool times and block faces. Players also have a reach limit, so I'd need to move to any location I want to break. This is a lot to do "accidentally". A malicious script could do this, but Voltz and I, the only people currently on the whitelist, aren't going to make nor run such a script. Limiting his abilities limits his usefulness. What if I want to run WE commands to do complex rotations of objects? The more the bot is allowed the do, the better we can build it.
Private messages are manageable, meaning it would take less than 15 lines of code to make the bot completely silent.
