OS, I think you're grabbing the wrong end of the stick here. The rules committee does think it's important, but they also specifically say not to give a T for this (see website). Most high school players are negligent, not defiant about shirts. The shirts come out, and they ignore it. It's not a matter of letting them "get away" with something.
If you are working a game where the same player keeps travelling in the same way again and again, are you going to give her a T because she's trying to get away with something? No, but that doesn't mean you're being "soft". You can just keep calling the travel again and again, and hope she learns her lesson that way.
