I studied CS in Germany and the entire issues seems completely unnecessary and foreign to me. Our exercises only mattered insofar as they qualified you for the end of semester exam, and that was done on paper and without electronic devices so you couldn't cheat and it's the only thing that mattered for your degree. Why are adults at a university doing graded homework? They're responsible for their own learning, and if they want to cheat, well good luck on your exam. Our exercises in math and CS always were a few years old and kind of cycled through, so just copying old solutions was trivial, but what for, you're only hurting yourself. People who didn't learn just bombed out at the end. A university education is voluntary, people are there by their own choice. Honestly this seems almost entirely like a byproduct of the privatized education system. University as children's daycare where everyone needs to pass and be tutored because there isn't an incentive to just filter people out.
