what if we just force them to stay in prison until they solve a super hard $$$3500$$$-rated codeforces IQ problem? Maybe the worst criminals would have to solve a $$$3500$$$-rated IQ problem, but the more tame ones would only have to do like a $$$3000$$$-rated problem. This could make it easier for smarter criminals to get out of prison so that they can continue contributing to society. For the most part, unfortunately, dumber criminals are pretty much a lost cause. Solving a $$$3500$$$-rated IQ problem is no easy task, of course. It might take years for the average criminal to solve one.
It's a life sentence for 99.9% of the criminals
Yes, that could be the case. Unfortunately, it might be the case that a 145+ IQ person could solve it in like a month or two, but a 130 IQ person would take years, and there would be no shot for a 120 IQ person. As the IQ gets lower and lower, the time to solve gets exponentially longer. That just doesn't seem so fair to most criminals, so the problem-assigning system might need to be more advanced.
And for each WA, their sentence gets extended by a year
Then, LGMs seem to be too free. It's like a div1 contest for them.
I think smart criminals are actually dangerous
If we are talking about hitler-esque sort of people, then yes. If we are talking about Wolf-of-Wallstreet-esque sort of people, then no. I think that there are more Leonardo DiCaprios out there than Hitlers, so the net impact on society would probably be positive.
One Hitler is enough to ruin the world
It's not like solving a problem in 2 hours. Imagine living for several years, in the hope that you could solve one single CP problem within a time limit.
Imagine getting into prison for possession of CP and then instantly getting out of prison because you are really good at CP.
LGMs be like
