I also highly doubt their statement that more users were cheating under Linux than not. I'd like to see how they came to this conclusion. And if it's so easy to identify who was cheating, why not just ban them if it's .01 players? That's like 7 or 8 bans. An insignificant amount of effort would go a long way here.
Remember when Apex banned Linux during a cheating low, and then cheaters started trending upward AFTER the ban? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
