Oh that sounds so great. I walk out the door to class, realize I forgot a pen, then get to take a 15 minute walk all the around the building just to get back up to my room. Wonderful

A fringe benefit of the design is that it applies behavioural and evolutionary pressure against forgetfulness and other cognitive flaws.

Evolutionary pressure, what? This isn't a situation where people who just happen to forget a pen one day deserve to not breed.
