Its not about the principle of cheating or student inclination its about psychological induction that its morally or ethically wrong. People are not always inclined to follow the law or rules. It just sets a boundary. Whats stopping you from killing someone?

Whats stopping you from killing someone?

I have morals and ethics. But, not everybody does, and that's why there's prior enforcement to make the punishment a deterrent for the crime.

If there's no enforcement, there's no law.
