My point was that both the “honesty is the best policy” and the “never give a sucker an even break” crews are guessing because the information isn’t out there.
My guess is that different systems reward different amounts of cheating, and aside from luck, one of the factors contributing to success may be a finely tuned sense of when to cheat and when not.
I suspect some degree of sarcasm, but that’s actually an interesting topic. After all, a successful cheater can’t afford to get caught very much in the process of learning how much to cheat.

Yeah, and the people who have the finest-tuned sense of when to cheat are the people who spent the most effort on tuning it!
