It makes sense to me that a spammer would find a broke undergrad in
CompSci and say, "hey, I'll pay you $100 to grab me a copy of every
email address that's on the global keyserver network."

"Infinite" resources is putting things a little strongly.  "Routine and
unexceptional business expense" is more accurate.

This presupposes the system *is not already* being harvested.  As
several people have told you, there is reason to suspect that it is.
Given this, I can't engage your question since it seems built on
assumptions that are not true.
