Please could you consider updating the rule that excludes anything matching 'google', as it excludes usage via the Google Web Light service:
https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/mobile/web-light
Mobile use with UAs like this is excluded from COUNTER reports; I believe this may be genuine human usage, and therefore incorrectly excluded:
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 4.2.1; en-us; Nexus 5 Build/JOP40D) AppleWebKit/535.19 (KHTML, like Gecko; googleweblight) Chrome/38.0.1025.166 Mobile Safari/535.19

I have no experience with Google Web Light, but if we want to exclude it, we could use a negative lookahead to keep excluding google*, except googleweblight:
google(?!weblight)

You can test this here :

I don't see any occurrence of negative lookahead (?!...) in the current list though.
