Comment (by nullius):

 Suggestion:  Instead of using some ''ad hoc'' “pass” scheme to distinguish
 “good” from “bad” traffic, Cloudflare and Tor Browser should both
 implement an Internet Standard, [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3514 RFC
 3514].  If Tor Browser may consider implementing such a feature, should I
 open a new bug for this?

 N.b. that this suggested implementation does not ''eliminate'' CAPTCHAs.
 Rather, it turns so-called “challenges” into an in-browser currency whilst
 snookering the user into serving as a [https://xkcd.com/1897/ mechanical
 Turk].  Thus, it is perhaps the worst form of micropayments ever
 conceived.  As a more general issue, users should be educated on the
 current market value of their time and “Attention Required!” attention
 performing mind-numbingly boring tasks on behalf of computers:  The new
 masters, whom humans are hatched to serve.
