The Racing Kings syndrome

Once upon a time , there was a not-so-famous chess variant called Racing Kings...supported by Lichess...
For years now , since the days of e-Safarz , players appear suddenly , reach the top in a few hours/days and then they are banned. It has happened so many times and it's still happening!
VERY FEW top 10 players have managed to stay alive and avoid getting banned.
Every time you check the RK top10 you can see 6-7 "new" (??) players who disappear in a flash.

What is wrong with this poor variant?
Nothing, just leaderboard fixes (requiring a lower RD) have made life difficult for cheaters.
