Well you might guess from what I wrote about judgment that I did not find your suggestion about writing for integrity too moralistic. I have come to find deceiving and cheating not immoral just in the biblical, pedantic sense that we get as children, but in the deep personal quality-of-life sense. Specifically, if I, for example, got successfully published by plagiarism or hack writing or something of the sort, any success I got would feel, at a gut level, empty. The sense of personal achievement would be gone. That's why unintegrity is wrong -- it can create only the illusion of self-worth and accomplishment.
