I think it's a wise strategy, helps prevent the AC developers from getting their hands on the methods (barring leaks in the cheating community of course). Also prevents the games from being overrun with cheaters to the point that it ruins the fun of playing the game. When approached professionally by teams such as Elusion, and with novel methods, I think it's healthier for the game overall than if it wasn't invite-only. On another note, there is something to be said about this reduced scale of cheating though, I think cheating online games should more so be used as an accessibility feature than as a straight-up rage hack, I've never found rage hacking to be fun. As I'm getting older and more and more young players are entering the online games it makes it difficult for me to compete on a level playing field, due to lack of time that I can invest in 'getting good' or simply my reaction time being not what it used to be. I try to use cheats as a way to level that playing field, like a subtle aim assist and chams (or visible-only esp/radar) is my preferred level of accessibility. It makes it so I can relax and enjoy the game for what it is without worrying about sweating over winning or losing.
