Would you be opposed to SE implementing a program to scan for addons/parsers?

You know they'd only be able to fully detect cheating with an anti-cheat, right? That's the entire point of anti-cheat software being part of multiplayer games.

No, you are not able to fully detect cheating until the halting problem is solved. The only thing you can do is throwing heuristics on suspicious software. And then you have to deal with false positives and still not detectable cheats. And if the cheaters start using virtual machines like KVM then the propability to detect something is going to almost zero.
