Let's be real we should know better. Microsoft isn't doing this because they "care about the community" and cheating. They're doing it so they can force controller licensing and line their pockets. If they're framing it as anti-cheat, that's because they know that it would be better accepted than saying something about "Quality", also it's well known that the gaming community has a tendency to accept practices that would be considered draconian outside of Anti-cheat when it's used as Anti-cheat and will attack those who speak out against them.
Yeah there will always be problems with online networks, but it's easier to work with issues on decentralized ones than it is for centralized ones since one can just join a new server when it comes to abusive admins, or the community as a whole can deal with it if it's bad enough and they're fed up with it.
These options don't exist for centralized corporate online play.
