I think this is a stupid rule taught so that the privileged can game the systems but the vast majority of people don’t reap any benefits.
I have a rather contrarian view. If you have a symbiotic relationship (mostly friends and family) don’t game the system. If you have an adversarial relationship (employer, school, etc) where an entity has a lot more power over you than you have over them - feel free to game. People running these places treat you as a number. There is no shame in gaming it.
- Aurornis 8mo agoThis is a short-sighted construction of cheating. These situations aren't simple 1-to-1 relationships between students and their university. When someone lies about having a disability to get priority housing access, they're competing against students who have real disabilities. When someone cheats on exams, they throw the curve off for students who aren't cheating.
