Could I persuade you to reconsider going over them? I'm not expecting an essay or anything but it would be interesting.
One thing that comes to mind for me is that most cheaters probably don't code the cheats themselves but buy them off telegram channels or whatever (just a guess), and probably wouldn't want to install a whole operating system for them
Cheating is a market, and most cheaters are not programmers themselves. But it goes deeper than that. Most players, and players who intend to cheat are already using Windows. Any portion of a game's player base that intends to cheat is usually small, any the portion of a game's player base that is also running Linux at the same time, is even smaller. So programming cheats for Linux (however easy it may be), is a nil-some game. Though I'm not going to claim it's never happen, there are cheats for CS2 on Linux for example, but this is an outlier and exception to the rule.

Sorry, I didn't say that because I was trying to withhold this information, I just didn't want to spoil my future blog post. If you don't want to wait for the post and just want to hear it, I'm down to just giving a overview of the reasonings.
As Starz0r said, one of the main reasons is that the market is just very small. I think it was CSGO that had basically no protection on Linux for years, and the developers just ignored it because the small number of players didn't make much of an impact.
