I understand it’s a security conscious person’s opinion to prefer non-invasive anticheat systems, but I personally would prefer to have a choice. Run two versions, one with invasive anticheat and guarantee for no cheats, one less invasive but more cheat prone.

I real cost of hours spent with cheats on cs:go for me is too high.

The funny thing is that you cannot "guarantee for no cheats". It's just software that runs on the players computer and there are cheats for both Valorant and League. So your choice is more between the two versions a) less invasive but cheats and b) installing a kernel driver and maybe a rootkit but cheats.
