The idea behind obfuscation is that an attacker could request /test.jsp as /%74%65%73%74.jsp using URL encoding, possibly use unicode as / \ x 74 \ x 65 \ x 73 \ x 74.jsp (without the spaces) and/or other encoding methods and the web server would potentially parse them all as /test.jsp even though the iRule doesn't.
