One thing that was left out in your summary is how jacmob was hired: Shortly after the Bot Nuke he showed up at the annual convention of Jagex and showed off his (still working) new Bot to the one of the heads of Jagex, who ended up hiring him.
I left out the hiring story because it sounds so apocryphal I was sure I’d made it up or was embellishing my memories. So much niche drama I’d completely forgotten about.
