1. They are bumhunters so they are nowhere near the top. A top player would make much more against the same opponents.
2. They rarely play long sessions where they can really hone in and exploit all tendencies maximally. Over a few thousand hands they would increase their winrate, even allowing for a small amount of adjustment from the fish.
3. They might not have the incentive to try to maximize winrate/hand. Obviously you should play every hand to maximize EV, if you have unlimited amount of action. But bumhunters don't have that. It's more important to maximize EV from every single fish, even if it means skinning them a little slower. E.g risk less at the start to minimize the chance of hit and runs or use whatever tricks bumhunters use to increase the chance of the fish reloading.
What you have here is that after the bots strategy is laid out and analyzed by the best players in the world, they can only find 15bb/100 worth of leaks in it. Maybe slightly more as they understand the bot better. I doubt many players could match that.
