User Savvatiy suspected to be a cheater

Dear chess players,

I suspect that in the game I've played with the user Savvatiy (only one game against this user overall, played today) the aforementioned user fell back on engine's help to achieve better results than this user's official lichess rank presumes. The moves were very precise and overall the analysis after the game revealed that Savvatiy made only one mistake which, in fact, isn't even mistake in its raw sense but just not the strongest move in a very advantagous position.

Cheaters are not acceptable and spoil the joy of the game for all. I know, the following is a subjective opinion but my experience of playing engine allows me to conclude that the user Savvatiy manner of play against me in this particular game is much in tune with the dry and matter-of-fact engine's way of play.

Guys, you are welcome to review that game for yourselves. Savvatiy, I do not outright point a finger at you with blatant accusation. It is just my suspicion yet to be probed into and proved or not. Although, as I said, your manner of play reminded me of the way engines play. Sorry and my congratulations if moderators find my suspicion to be ungrounded otherwise wait to be dubbed a cheater with the relevant mark over your nickname.
Um. You want OP's profile marked with a red "This player publicly accuses other people of cheating"? Plus...what?

I'm on board with Public Accusations being against the rules; but the statement:

"Cheaters are unacceptable.
Public accusations are more unacceptable."

Might be the silliest thing I've ever read. Its better to be a engine user than it is to be a tattle tale?
Negative ghost rider.
What makes you suspicious of this player? Seems like a pretty normal game to me. Almost equal up until you miss the queen and rook fork.
Whether or not he cheated against the OP, he's been marked now.
