> The professor in this article managed to redesign his assignments to more or less make cheating difficult, and suddenly it was less of a problem

The students on the next semester used DMs, as the end of the article points out, and the professor didn't care, which means that the amount of cheating for that semester was unknown and hence, not less of problem. Unless that is, you're the professor and seem unwilling to punish cheats, or you're one of the students who cheated.
