It's also how these raiders get caught too. It's not them talking about it in public, it's not them admitting to using third party tools. It's the fact that they're either using ridiculously blatant tools that anyone and their grandmother can tell is a problem (speedhacks) or they're streaming those tools being used, like the TOP guys did.

A screenshot of your Miqo'te with entire shards for a bosom? There's no guarantee that the catgirl is the one modding her character. Someone might have mods and have taken a picture of her with them on. She isn't modding, someone else is, and they're doing it to her. Even if consensual. Which is why it's that hard to prove. Even if you have someone admit to using them, if there's no tangible proof that they truly are using them, then it's not a straightforward process.

However if you manage to capture their screen with them using modded assets, then yeah. That's a much more tangible proof.

...which is why for as much as clearing any Ultimate is a feat of its own that likely requires skill and knowledge of the game, the people who got caught are no geniuses if their immediate thought was to broadcast their use of third party tools so publicly.
