>Cheating is a problem only for cheaters.   

Alas, this isn't true.  

The real problem is that it also hurts the students who do their own
work, and whose grades can suffer if someone else cheats.  If it weren't
for this, there would be no real reason to attempt to track down these
problems, which are painful and time consuming for all involved.
