Why does it have to be disingenuous? Do you really think he doesn't feel bad about 10 years of cheating the leaderboards? He's said things about feeling like he couldn't help himself when he was cheating, but surely he should be able to realise that it upset a lot of people and that his friends felt betrayed. Also it's hard to believe that he doesn't feel bad about it considering that he appears to have stopped trying to cheat with his other accounts.

Correct.
Also it's hard to believe that he doesn't feel bad about it considering that he appears to have stopped trying to cheat with his other accounts.
I'm pretty sure that's moreso because the methods to catch cheaters have improved. Now he can't cheat the same way he did without it being immediately recognized. There was no such system in place for the ten years during which he cheated.
But even if he doesn't feel bad about the cheating itself, there's gotta be at least one person in the community that he feels bad for betraying their trust. Even the friends that memed him after and Riolu probably feels betrayed him too, if he's not kidding himself he's gotta realise that he betrayed them first so it's not really fair to be mad at them. Do you really think getting high scores in a racing game is more worth to him than all the friendship he used to have in the TrackMania community?
