Boruto's feelings are understandable and reasonable. His brat behaviour is reasonable. Sakura also realised that the test was a way too complex for an average genin. She hasn't been average and had a knack for theory, thus she was able to solve it. Also, the entire room full of genins all realised (except for Naruto) that the true objective is cheating without being caught. Plus, as stated by Ibiki, without several chunins brought into the classroom specifically for the task of being the subjects for cheating, the results would be quite underwhelming.
