Because they kept it hidden. That was also dealt with rather quickly once they became aware of it. Nothing happened with BLU or Eureka Light glitching when that was known about for about a year in Eureka's case (how many got banned for cheesing Doom during BA?) and this MSQ exploiting has been publicly known for over 18 months.

Doesn't matter what tools they have if they aren't allowed to use them.

It's against the TOS, the GMs have a ton of data they can use if the situation worsens, you're the one risking your account, it's up to you to decide if permanent warning strikes/bans against your account is worth saving that 25 minutes instead of firing up netflix or your favorite social media to distract yourself. And if you end up in front of a GM, you literally have no one to blame but yourself. That's it, no ifs and or buts.
Yep, just like you risk your account when you bot, sell content for real money, parse, use hunt radar, steal from a FC chest, run a LM scam party, provide unsolicited advice, pilot someone else's account, or win trade. Oh, I forgot, those are either not against the ToS and so don't matter even though they affect other people, or are dealt with by the STF, which has even more tools at their disposal than the GMs but somehow allows it to continue.
