Reddit has always been biased. You can't say anything bad about the controller there, because you'll be slammed in the next moment. It's a predominantly American community, and as we know, controller gaming dominates in America.
EA needs to somehow force Respawn to respond to the questions you've raised. This will never be explained on Reddit, and everyone will hate you for telling the truth.
The only thing I can recommend is to try raising this issue with someone on YouTube, like Zeus. Thanks to him, last season (or s27), the top three Preds on console were banned for things like XIM and Cronus Zen. The increased publicity this way will force Respawn to address the situations you've raised in your thread. If you're up for it, you should try doing it this way (if you care about the reach to finally force Respawn to look into this).
I don't see any other option – as you've noticed, this forum is very poorly visited, and EA mainly participates in threads about account bans (with boilerplate replies). If EA can't or won't do anything about it, and Reddit is a very toxic community, do you have any other option? I don't think so.
I think it takes a few weeks or even months (if someone decides to do it) to create good content for YouTube, but can anything change in that time? Yes, it can only get worse, because new, very complicated cheats to detect appear all the time.
oh if we bump this topic for 3-4months smb in the youtube-sphere will pick it up, 100%
