Punishment must be reasonable without doubt, or juries may be inspired to falsify their findings based upon an obvious threat of excessive violence hanging over an accused perpetrator. Juries (the country represented by 12 randomly selected representatives) require not only the power to judge fact and law (based upon moral conscience), they also must decide what is or is not a just remedy, which is not the same thing as a punishment. The idea is to deter crime by making crime unaffordable, not to set an example of what happens to someone who fails to obey orders without question.
