Where is the opportunity, there is a crime.

The most of the students will not use it for improving their own text or iteration process, unless the penalties for cheating are very high. They instead copy-paste the instructions, add some adjustments, and then copy-paste the output. This will give them results in the shortest amount of time, if there are assignments where something needs to be returned. But how to detect cheaters?

Too many students do tasks as in "completion" oriented way, not in learning oriented way. I am mostly talking from college/university perspective.

> pan out for the better then the worse

While I'm sure this is a typo, I also expect this is exactly how it will play out. For the better initially, then, for the worse a short time later.
