You know who canāt afford to ban security researchers?
Companies & govs who need to know about bugs researchers find, thatās who.
Microsoft, which receives over 200,000 non-spam e-mail messages a year, made it a priority to improve relations with hackers.
Bans make no sense.

Back when I was at a large FinTech, we ran our own BB and only considered banning a researcher once, and that was because they went way beyond scope. They got a warning instead for the very reason you cite, we wanted the reports, and bans are only for criminal behavior.
