I don't think anybody's saying that you shouldn't penalize the rule as it is now written. The question is whether you think that the rule as now written is a good rule. Would support changing it somehow to make the penalty the same for both the offense and the defense? For example, by going to the POI after most technicals, as is done in NCAA.

Personally, I have no real strong feeling about it either way. I work both rulesets, so I'm used to both. I'd be fine with a change to the NCAA rule (minus all the Class A/Class B silliness), but I'm also fine with it the way it is.
