I believe it's for probing and testing.

They're using it to a. See what exactly are red flags to us such that we notice them as non-human, b. Testing to see when they successfully slip past us.

These are the obvious ones; I suspect there are many that we are now not noticing.

We're providing free data to them whenever we do or do not flag the comments, unfortunately.
