I'm new to the competition. I found that some shared notebooks in \"Code\" area contain submission files directly, such as \"https://www.kaggle.com/code/andrey67/leash-bio-blender-0-440/notebook\". Is it valid to resubmit these files to get a high lb score? I believe this is a kind of cheating. But is there a way to prevent competitors from doing this? It's not fair to other competitors if someone does this.
