Please keep in mind that without PunkBuster, netCoders wouldn't be what it is today. Would who buy undetected private hacks, if there's no anti-cheat? Everyone could simply use public hacks all the time, and the vendors here would not make any money.

Sure, netCoders would be a site that distributes public hacks, but everyone would use them then, and no one would make any money out of it. There would be no leagues, since no one can be trusted, and cheating would be as common as an edited user interface.

Eventhough we keep burning PB to the ground, we need PB to keep nC up and running.

The one way for PunkBuster to destroy nC, is to stop detecting public hacks. However, doing so and PB will also destroy itself. A sacrifice they will not attempt to make.
