This is exactly wrong. At the highest levels you play your opponent, not only GTO. No one can play pure GTO and you exploit how your opponent moves off GTO.

Maybe if you have a lot of hands and so are confident they're deviating in some hand, otherwise you risk getting exploited yourself.

The players who study GTO instead of trying to win these meta mind games have proven to do very well in online heads up while the old-school mind games guys keep going boom and bust.
