Legend
I didn't run published modules in 2E because several of my players were already familiar with the older adventures, and at least one was notorious for consulting them to know what to do/where to go next. He was also the player that had memorized most of the entries of the Monster Manual (at least, the pertinent stats).
Haven't had that problem since then, and while I've run into folks too worried about "builds", I luckily haven't had someone who just treats it as a game "to beat".
