Other cases can happen very trivially. Imagine you have an image stored on some Google controlled property and the bot is constructed to mirror pages that is to download dependencies like images, then Google can know when "someone" visited the site even without javascript or cookies, depending on how the referer header field is used. Maybe not here, but those infamous 1x1 hidden images were used for tracking.
