Personally I joined LHC to crunch work for physics and not for credits.
...
The project is whats important, and getting that work crunched, for the scientists to evaluate.


I completely agree. By far more important than giving fare credits is to check out, that the results are not spoofed or affected by some glitch or bug as well.

As far as the given credits have no real value, the crediting system is of secondary priority for me. Of course the problems in this item also should be corrected in order to maintain participants' trust on the system generally.
