There's legitimate reasons why servers may have bots - they could be running an an airshot map, for example. In my community, practice maps like that are run on match servers while there isn't any matches on, but I can see a clan with only one server might run it public some of the time, and have it on airshot maps the rest of the time. That would unfairly penalise them.
