I was trying to make a larger point about the concept of plagiarism as a form of scientific misconduct. In a teaching setting you are just perpetrating exam fraud and should get nailed to the wall.

Ah, fair enough, I think I misunderstood your point.

Yes, plagiarism as scientific rather than academic misconduct is cracked down on hard. As you said, it's easy to prove, and, I suspect they don't like the idea of having their own work copied without attribution.
