That's what Niels wrote...

...And I fully agree with him. It's impossible to create a game w/o cheating.
Cheating was first a programming tool. Programmers test a game by cheating
and -because of that- reaching situations SO fast like noone else. Removing
cheats is a problem because they're "embedded" into the game.

...And, CHEATING and using bugs is justly normal- In real life, too:

Look at some people who made money with web site names. It's kind of 'using
bugs'.
