Feynman's Freshman Class problem... I don't think this is well enough
understood to put this in front of users. And by this, I mean,
concepts like entropy or even a score.

It also doesn't actively give advice in advance, it only disqualifies
(or admonishes) after the fact, so it's negative (re)enforcement,
rather than being positive. And I can't agree this is the right
direction to go in.
