Several sites have implemented this (captcha) “check” into their site code. The browser can’t choose to skip that.

A clearing of the history may have taken the website data (cookies) with it, which may include a token for a previous pass for this “test”. Next time, try keeping the website data if you feel the need to clear the history, by holding the Option/​Alt key (⌥) simultaneously.

Alternatively, continuous reloading a page or page element may be seen as bot-like behavior. Again, this may be site protection behavior, not about the browser per se.
