Even if you managed to trick your way into staying longer, then what?
With limited time access your continued stay is illegal, and you are likely to go to jail and be deported the first time you need to prove your identity for virtually anything, cant, and the authorities get a hold of you. Or had to go to the hospital. Or tried to rent an apartment. Or even tried to make a cash withdrawal from your account.
You know what is cheaper for these nations than any one of those steps? Denying your visa.
I wouldn’t know, my passport is the most visa free accepted in the world.
Drastically different things
The point isn’t to stay longer, it’s to provide proof that you will leave to obtain the visa in the first place. Legitimate visa applications are declined all the time, so if this helps your application, why not?
