This is an nginx reverse proxy configuration. It's not passive, like robots.txt, but they probably named it like thatin solidarity with the intent of robots.txt. You're on-point about Alibaba though, which I'm sure could be somewhat easily added to this nginx blocking strategy. Anubis is still probably a better solution, since it doesn't have that limitation of having LLM bots pass a user-agent.
