Um...
Did you forget that statistics are a science?
There is a big difference between saying "I feel this is true" and "Statistically, I can say with 85% confidence that this is true".

One of my profs at uni is a stats genius of sorts, and worked on contracts for the military. They were able to take high-altitude satellite feeds which were searching for boats on the ocean and showed nothing but static fuzz, and using statistical methods, determine the exact location of said boats. If you watched the video you wouldn't have a clue what you were looking at, but they were able to absolutely determine what the picture was from a bunch of fuzz.

So don't tell me that statistics and feelings are equally useless. I don't know a whole lot about Brahma's anti-cheat. I can't say to you that it is perfect, although I am happy with the greatly reduced number of cheaters in the newer version.
