Also, I suspect if grade application exercises they'll end up on sites
like Chegg and Course Hero were students share answers (if students are
not already doing that on campus). One would think they'd be less likely
to share answers if they're not graded. Plus, AEs are typically hard to
write -- why make more work for yourself with new ones each term?

I need something fair, so that teams who have reasoned well can be rewarded, but also simple, because I'd rather not spend hours and hours on them. In our grading system top mark is 30/30 and pass mark 18/30, so there are many possibilities to discriminate between two different grades.
