 Matt- good point. This is probably part of the 'real risk creation' thing, but only in the background. I think I focused so much on meeting the academic viewpoint on its own terms that I left out entirely different justifications that would explain things. Something for me (or whoever is revising this) to keep in mind during editing, although I'm not sure how an eye for an eye would work smoothly with attempts, given that arguably no harm has been created so maybe there would be no reason to punish at all (not a very realistic option).

On the other hand, my focus was not on why to punish at all, but only why to have reduced sentences, so maybe the retribution theory is not as helpful here as it might be elsewhere.
