Is this cheating?

Is this cheating?

I'm playing a Daily on chess.com we are both ~1200 Elo. I've been studying a particular unusual opening and stayed on book, but my opponent has found the absolute best answer for +1.0 by move 7 and I'm... Suspicious.

I check his history and analyze past games (haven't touched our live game!) with chessanalysis engine, and lots of them look like this- a mix of inaccuracy and okay moves, but overwhelmingly the biggest classification of his moves is "Brilliant".

Is this a quirk of the analysis I'm using, or is my opp being a sussy baka?
