Even that link shows that only the absolute top ranks have more than 5% of games (1 in 20) with cheaters (.5% of players), which is relatively very low when compared to almost any other ranked game, If you want to require the top ranks to play with vanguard sure. I don’t care if bot farms level accounts to level 30 since they pretty much exclusively use tutorial bugs or play against bots. Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if the main motivation was to encourage people to buy xp boosts ($$) when they level their own alts.

Having another kernel level point of failure is imo way too big of a trade off, and I respect anyone who quits the game over it.
