That's Google's reCaptcha service, which archive.is happens to use, not archive.is itself.

I think archive.is choosing to use something means they’re nearly as culpable.

That's theoretically arguable. Still, for the many reCaptcha users in the world, Google dropped it on them and they are at least temporarily stuck with it. Not everyone has the time or energy to implement another solution, and what solution is better? Cloudflare's infinite turnstile?
