Humans have a bias to root out and punish 'cheaters.'

Some cognitive tasks become magically easier if we reframe them in terms of cheating. We seem to be hard wired for this.[1]

It's not a question of logic at all, but of human nature.

This is why it seems unfair to us when people 'use robots' to do their work.
