[excellent description snipped]

You shed a lot of light on the situation.  This includes my not thinking
clearly when I first posted my rant.  Rereading that I see that the
other student was not denying the query was about a homework
assignement. 

It would have been correct for me to wail "Is this the way they learn
CS?"  With the apparent answer that, no, but some students try it.
