What this will create is real life level grinding, and a glut of half-assing a lot of socially desirable "traits". This could get very ugly, very fast if this article is accurate, creating a society where corners are cut in the interest of upping their score. It's like profit motive but for every day interactions.

This is very clear in traditional schools: few students go beyond the assigned tasks and readings, popular kids mock the ones who study for their own benefit and cheating is rampant.
