Is there any way to leave the bots on port 80?

Is there any way to leave the bots on port 80? As most browsers send users to https, you could use port 80 access as a signal these users are likely bots and should be treated as such? I just mention this because I know bot detection is itself an annoying problem... maybe you’ve found one possible way to at least learn who the bots are?
