That much I figured. What I was puzzled about was _how_ it was being 
incompetent. Also how it could be so in a way that wouldn't be obvious to the 
professor in question. 

I haven't used Urkund, but people are pushing it here at CBS too. If they start 
automating it on electronic submissions in maths and stats, some interesting 
things could happen. I have used iThenticate as a journal editor, and that one 
will tell you word for word which sections of text are identical to which 
sections of text in which other documents.
