So the purpose of academia is teach pupils a subject, that they can the use in real life.
When you're solving the same problems in real life you do have access to all those tools that you banned. Because in real life, if you manage to solve a problem it doesn't matter that much how you solved it.
Sure, if you just Google things and always solve your problems by copy pasting. Your solutions will lack depth, and at some point this will catch up to you.
My point is, cheating is primarily cheating on yourself, and it will catch up to you.
I think this is the framing you should have with regards to cheating.
