Reasons behind Magnus's actions (powered by my idiot brain)

Why Magnus took such radical actions:

First of all, I do not think that Magnus is doing all this because of his own selfish reasons. Although I do not fully agree with Magnus's actions, I do believe his actions are well thought in contrast to being emotionally driven. Here's what I think are the reasons behind Magnus's decision:

1.

 Magnus already knew about Hans's past. He wasn't comfortable playing with him consequently. This coupled with Hans's rapid rise in chess made Magnus vulnerable to suspicion.

2.

 Magnus said in his statement that he found Hans not fully concentrated during the game. One of the main reasons behind Magnus's success in chess is that he takes his losses very seriously. For this reason there is no way Magnus will be calm knowing an around 2700 rated GM beat him without even using full concentration, that too with the black pieces.

3.

 Magnus probably knows about various chess cheating incidents of the past and how the punishments of those incidents were not fit to the crimes. As a result, he felt a need for something exemplary assuming Magnus is sure that Hans cheated.

4.

Lastly Magnus knows how easy it is to cheat at the highest level of chess. He also stated that in his statement. So he felt if he doesn't take some radical unprecedented actions, the chess world won't take much of a notice of this incident.

To sum up, I do think Magnus is doing this with the intention of overall benefit of chess. He is the greatest decision maker on the chessboard. So, we shouldn't just criticize his decisions on this matter.

 His decisions might not be correct but they are definitely not rubbish decisions either.

My take on this whole incident:

I honestly have no idea. I believe that regardless of the truth, both possibilities are perfectly plausible. We see all sort of unbelievable achievements in the chess world. Hans's rapid rise could just be one of them. On the other hand, beating the world champion with the black pieces is no small achievement. The fact that "Hans Niemann beat Magnus Carlsen with the black pieces in a classical game" is a huge red flag in itself. Again, it could be that Magnus became paranoid and consequently played suboptimal chess. There are lots of possibilities  and we can't reject most of them. All we can do now is wait for some concrete proof to be published.
