I have been actively flagging spamming bots. I can guarantee this, if the user is in need of automating such a bot in order to get reward, he doesn’t have any value. You anyway have to check the account, so you can as well check the SP of the account right away.

If everyone was worried to use the flag, there wouldn’t be any censorship on the page and anyone could devolve the value of the token with any given harmful activity. People need to step up and be against morally wrong actions in any environment they are in, be it real life or Steemit.
