The issue isn’t ticking the box. Ticking the box only initiates the process, and it checks for a few things to see of your recent browsing behavior has been natural and human enough. This is why it takes a small while to actually get ticked after clicking, and also why sometimes, despite you being definitely browsing normally, it also asks you to click stop signs, and crosswalks: Just a triple-check.

Among other things, it checks if you navigated websites normally, it checks if your mouse behavior is sloppy-ish, and whatever typing speed you get.

This isn’t perfect, either, as some bots still get through, but it catches the really bad ones, which helps a lot.
