Irrational. Boosting is when you allow somebody else to play ranked on your account. If you've not done that, you don't have to worry. Riot realizes players have occasional outstanding games, just the same as they realize you have occasional bad games.

We don't know what information Riot use to recognize boosting but given the metric fraktons of, uh... metrics... they can gather and data mine we shouldn't be surprised if they look at very personal behavior such as mouse movement, patterns of button presses (e.g. how often you right-click to move), duration of key-presses (button down -> release) etc etc etc in addition to all the obvious stuff - champ performance, spells used, skill order. Add in other clues such as computer hardware hashes, ip/location. They probably have very good information to support that someone else is playing on a boosted account.

You are being super paranoid.
