Anti-cheat system

Yeah I guess it's time to give some feedback about the anti-cheat system. So far I've encountered so many cheaters I lost count. Here are a few examples where I've kept the steam profile link somewhere to check later if they were banned or not and where they were NOT banned:

-Healing instantly from dying to healthy state every 2 seconds (I was killer hitting them with NOED active and they were healing as fast as I could hit, and back to healthy state not even injured)

-Speed hacking, the guy was running in straight line. I thought of speed burst at first and was playing Legion. I use frenzy and they were going faster than me for the whole duration of frenzy. No need for pallet or vault.

-Another speed hack where I was playing trapper and without bloodlust the survivor was gaining distance in straight line. He was just doing some left-right and still going further. With bloodlust 1 I was pretty much at their speed. Bloodlust 2 I was finally catching up slowly. The whole thing without needing to drop any pallet or vault.

-The guy finishing all the gens in about 20 seconds (travelling time included). Exit gates were powered about 30 seconds after start of game. Then they blinded me and the blind lasted for about a full minute.

... and the list goes on. None of these 4 has been banned so far. They're still playing it no problem. This is bad enough as it is to be honest... but today someone I play with every day just got banned... while they did not cheat. Their Internet was just going hectic and after 2 very confusing game of him getting hit by the killer from 20 meters away and other times not being hit while he probably should have been... he stopped. And now he's banned for "speed / fly hack" detected by Easy Anti-Cheat "without reasonable doubt"

The quality of your anti-cheat itself is enough to have VERY reasonable doubts in my opinion. So feedback on your anti-cheat: worse than not detecting cheaters, it detects lags as cheating. You did a pretty good job so far apparently. I'm just afraid that one day I'll just get randomly banned if my Internet starts lagging. How do I avoid that?
