The solution to cheating is what we used to have: moderated, privately owned servers, and invite-only servers.
Let the cheaters join the cheat-friendly servers or the foolishly unmoderated servers.

I agree, but then you lose the convenience of centralised match making, and I’m guessing, a number of predatory monetisation schemes. Allowing third party servers however would be a very good way to stop killing games.
I don’t believe intrusive anti-cheating is required for online gaming to flourish. But even if it was, I would give up Elite Dangerous, for which I have bough a VR setup and build my cockpit, before I give up full control over my PC.
