Because I thought that hard kata's will have better tests.

A kata cannot have tests "better" than the framework it's using. Here you're abusing the framework itself (hence: "not a kata issue")

(Yeah, you don't do that for points, but you drop the cheat on 4 kata, 3 blue and 1 purple... pretty convenient.)

Not a suggestion either. Again:

• this has nothing to do with the kata but with codewars itself.
• this is perfectly known by maintainers (since the very beginning)
• this is a choice of the maintainers to not handle this kind of thing and to flag solutions of users using it, and possibly ban them if they use it several times

The test you pointed above has nothing to do with what we're talking about.

As you saw, you got a pretty significant drop in your honor/progress. The solutions have been flagged (which involves an additional penalty). Now you know, so don't use that again or your account will just get suspended.

not an issue. That has nothing to do with the kata, but the the test framework (to be clear, this is totally aknowledged).

And this is actually considered a cheat, and people using this repeatedly are eligible for a ban. Just like you did.

1. Handled.

2. Known issue

3. Stop doing that, this will work almost everywhere, so no need to raise issue for that.
