Warzone 2.0 is free to play, so making a new account once banned is pretty trivial. Obviously they also have a financial incentive to keep players in and get them to just stop cheating, so they stick around and buy skins. Less likely to do that if they lose all the skins they do have.

With that said, I am pretty concerned about false positives with these types of systems. I am 99% certain back in Warzone 1 I was accidentally flagged as a cheater. This was when they were queuing cheaters only with other cheaters. So for a few months I was constantly facing blatant aimbotting players. Imagine constantly seeing players that don't actually exist because the game decided something on your PC was sus.
