I'm no fan of kernel level anti cheat either, but that "capable" anti cheat still sucks. At this point, I'm convinced that good anti cheat is actually impossible, so you may as well just not put it in the kernel. There are so many ways to cheat that an anti cheat will never detect.
Having a literal AI strapped to a physical controller (wires soldered to button contacts and so on), with a camera that watches the TV and plays for you is already a thing and cant be stopped except via serverside anticheat
doesn't even need AI, current real triggerbots only need a small area around your crosshair and use color information to determine whether you should shoot or not.
