I think that he was trying to sabotage competitors. I saw this behavior at UC Berkeley. An ultra competitive, almost 4.00 student intentionally gave the wrong approach to another team in our graduate level computer architecture course. My understanding is that the pre-med students at Berkeley engaged in this behavior much more extensively. This unethical behavior is rewarded in zero sum games and systems graded on a curve like most tech companies and UC Berkeley will exhibit this behavior. The student went on to a masters at Berkeley.
