I thought the Xbox didn't have a full jailbreak this gen yet, but maybe I'm wrong.
In any case, yeah, absolutely once consoles get jailbroken they become a vector of botting and cheating. Which is one reason why I have very mixed feelings about it. I welcome news of jailbreaking consoles because we do need it for preservation and emulation, which are important long term, but it is a bit of an issue for multiplayer, so sometimes it's fine if it starts happening a few years in rather than right away. It matters less since crossplay is a thing and you get all the PC stuff anyway, but still.
On the grand scheme, though, cheating is a numbers game. It's one thing to every now and then encounter some scammer or overly dedicated nerd and another to have an army of twelve year olds cheating trivially on every session you play.
Of course when it comes to Linux support the question is whether you can get Linux/SteamOS to the former state, or whether the volume of players is not enough to trigger the latter. I don't know, frankly. Each game probably has a different balance and figures out that math for themselves based on it.
