There was a thread here the other day talking about this specific kernel level being "needed" essentially it doesn't need kernel level because cheaters hack tools also go down to kernel level and if you wanted to cheat these kernel level anti cheats aren't doing anything to prevent that.

That's not true. It DOES help to have kernel level access for the Anticheat. Just because there are systems that can workaround this protection does not mean every cheat is able to break that.
