Does LiChess care about cheating in simuls?

I have two games here, both played by scholastic players that are young. In game 2, it was reported to me that the player was screen-sharing, but forgot he was doing so, in a Zoom breakout room, and he had two tabs open, one with analysis of the exact same position.

I have links to the games below, with names removed.

If the players get reported, will LiChess investigate it as real cheating? Cheating in simuls is not fun for me when I'm giving simuls. If I understand correctly, cheating is not allowed in casual games on LiChess.


I think cheating is cheating otherwise why even bother to hold Simuls. It should be investigated.
I think that cheating should = account closure no questions asked and no explanation given.
