That's one of the less invasive things, but I also don't see why a game needs to know what drivers I have.

Hence I just stay away from AAA games with anti cheat at this point.

Because the preferred deployment method of a lot of these cheats is via drivers so they look transparent to the game and are harder to detect from a userspace application.
The preferred deployment method of real cheats is outside of a virtualisation boundary. Driver-based is essentially entry level.
