I'm afraid that part of the message is coming through loud and clear.

Maybe a fix would be to [in the future] increase the penalty for that flagrant to more than two games suspension, which may dissuade the foul from recurring; and the guy sitting on the bench may be more inclined to be appeased with the punishment and will remain sitting or elect to take the one game suspension.
