Isnt the real issue Smurfing not Cheating?

Im confused why everyone is celebrating Hackers being banned. I have played Dota since the beginning. Made it to Divine 4 after starting somewhere in Archon.

In more than 10,000 hours of games I have encountered less than probably 5 Hackers. My hacking experiences have always either been a Tinker, Arc Warden, or Zeus, with scripts. (Auto dewarding, auto hexing, ETC)

Yet the entire community is aware of rampant smurfing. The average ranked experience has a smurf, which i am calling any account below lvl 50 as a smurf, in above half the games. Just yesterday I encountered 2 different players both on lvl 39 and 40 something account Spamming Meepo games with Arc, Meepo, and Shadow Fiend winrates all above 70%, pretty telltale signs of smurfing.

I am very confused at to what people are happy about with the banhammer? There is a tiny percentage of hackers in this game while I would argue more than half the total games of DOTA played have a smurf in them.
