How would this impact selenium based bots?

Perhaps not at all.

But the limitation of using #Selenium is a big one. Being forced to work in java, forced to use the resource hog of a modern gui browser, forced to reveal more browserprint info, being browser-dependent, etc. Selenium is my last choice when desperation is sufficiently high.
