Popular templates are protected for a reason, and editors don't edit them
needlessly, as they know about the high load this causes. 

For templates there is no way around the load this creates when they really
need to be edited. I have a hard time seeing a similarly good reason for making
8 million null edits at a rate of ~4/second. Especially without talking to the
people responsible for keeping the site running and in contravention of the bot
policy.
