You're probably right about the people cheating. I have no idea, but the top person in the Crossfitters group right now shows as 20.7 strain and 6168 calories. That's insane! The only reason I look at that group is to see the numbers, just because it blows my mind.
When I see people with multiple workouts in a day at 3pm that have strain totals of 16.9/20.1/15.9

All I do is roll my eyes.

Because NFW is someone doing that amount of exercise in the first 10 hours of the day. At my peak prepping for olympic qualifiers I wasn't training that much (maybe that's why I never made it though, haha!!!)

The best bet for it is much like most analysis. Measure against yourself and your own performances and build off of those totals.

Clearly people care more about what their are scoring than actual fitness.

Same stuff happens with the leader boards on live fitness apps like iFit or Peloton. The cheating is annoying if you pay attention to it!
