Potential fix against mouse and keyboard on console?

"Dear console players, we are working on something big for you."

Rainbow Six Siege's message earlier today was short but strong. Operation Commanding Force will include what looks like a massive update to the future for console players on Rainbow Six Siege.

In the middle of the short video for today's teaser, Rainbow Six Siege shows what it looks like a minimal logo of a mouse right behind a hazard sign. Moreover, the video animation looks like it's jammed by some kind of device.

Everything leads us to think that this console update will be a way of stoping mouse and keyboard users.

Is mouse and keyboard cheating on console Siege?

Rainbow Six Siege console players don't live with the struggles of cheaters. However, starting from Platinum and onwards, most players use mouse and keybord.

Mouse and keyboard gives an unfair advantage to console players when facing controller players, as the mouse and keyboard makes it easier and faster to aim; hence why most of console players consider that mouse and keyboard is a way of cheating.
