Should sandbox posts give rep?

Should sandbox posts give rep? On one hand, keeping this feature motivates more people to use the sandbox. On the other hand, allowing people to gain rep twice for the same content seems wrong in some way. What does everyone think?

The Sandbox is intended to be a place for feedback, right? If I lost rep because my sandboxed idea wasn't good, I'd be pretty angry about that.

Don't have the Sandbox modify reputation; instead use upvotes/downvotes as votes of approval, and set a bar for which the question can then be posted on the main site.

I don't know if it's possible to migrate a question to the main site which would negate the problem entirely?

We can change the rep values in the sandbox (no rep, tiny rep for up but not down, whatever y'all want) -- that GH issue I linked is now resolved.
