Cheating is simply a losing arms race. Client side monitoring may be a deterrent for the lazy cheater but it won't be enough to stop them. Only thing I see actually being viable is server-side machine learning to detect and monitor anomalies and suspicious behavior. (I don't know much about this in actual practice and this is just some wild speculation)

Exactly my reaction as well. The only 'benefit' she lists that I can truly see is 'greater visibility into the code everyone else is working on' but frankly that seems like it could be a burden as well.
Sometimes you don't need to know. If your team organizes it's projects and assignments well, you very well may be able to work on your small piece and integrate it without really needing to know every little thing every other person is working on.
With frequent commits branches just seem like an easier way to resolve conflicts as well as speed up the ability for others to test and merge their changes while you can resolve issues with a build.
I've found myself actually reading articles since I can't go in and just read someone else's synopsis of the content, which frankly is a good thing. I can get my own information and form my own opinions, Reddit just let me be lazy but it's a nice change.
As for engagement, just be the change your wish to see, and engagement will follow. I think there is still some fine tuning to be done in terms of the sorting algorithms as well, which would ideally get day old content out and active but fresh content in. A lot of dust left to settle with the great migration underway.
