Students write bloated, redundant, unclear sentences just to hit an arbitrary word count.

I’ve done it myself, stretched a simple sentence into a bloated mess just to hit the word count. It makes writing confusing and repetitive, and nothing gets clearer. Writing shouldn’t be about how long it is, but what it actually says.
