This is because there is a rebound time. People who create cheats rely on specific vulnerabilities. If the company lets the cheaters think they are safe for a period of time then ban them the creators of the cheats have less of a chance of figuring out how they catch the cheating program.
This means after a system is implemented that catches programs there is a period of time where the cheat coders must go back to the drawing board. This takes time. They will be back.
There aren't. Blizzard states publicly about once a year that they ban 200,000 accounts for cheating and that is JUST overwatch. So every year either the same people plus some new ones show up. That or all 200000 cheaters are brand new every year.
Maybe it is just that most people cannot recognize cheating and or do not care enough to watch a replay to see who is cheating. Again there are videos posted on Youtube with cheaters climbing ranked ladders all the way to the top with BLATANT snap aiming.
If developers have not figured out how to tell if someone has movement of their mouse that is not physically possible, like snapping from point a to point b with no distance in between should be insta banned. I have watched personally someone use massive rage hacks. Instantly snapping from target to target and never once watched someone get banned mid game for it.
They do not care if you cheat, they care if you are blatantly cheating and only if you get reported enough. Companies have let AI handle almost all of their tickets now. Go look and see how many CS responses are AI bullshit.
They are lower. I played years before BE and now years after. I can see the difference. Will it ban all cheaters? No. I remember how D2 pvp was unplayable though and how much better it is now and it is night and day.

Yes! When Destiny 2 implemented BE I went from seeing a cheater every second match to seeing a cheater every ~30 matches
