So that the exit node can't go to the site they were scraping and say "this is the person scraping your site".

  But you'd have relays in between, there's no way an exit node would know who is scraping...

    Right, but the question was "why would you need to obscure your identity from the exit nodes", in the context of why the person chose Tor vs. a simple proxy.

    Yes, but many scrapers configure their Torrc into single-relay mode (following tutorials and open source “rotating tor proxy” repos), in which case the exit relay can easily identify who is scraping which site.
