As I mentioned in the other comment, I am not equating the two, I am merely stating the case that punishments that are final/irreversible are bad news.
Also, in the comment you responded to, I had already stated that I am specifically _not_ referring to individual-to-individual interactions.
As for your mall analogy, maybe if said mall is the one that 1/6 of the human population shops at, the nearest competing malls only have 1/20th of the people/stores/stuff and there's only 1-2 competing malls where the shopkeepers speak the same language as you.

Timed bans (with exponential increase for reoffenders) or permabans with a process to lift it are better. Then trolls who can be beaten into submission would be, those who can't will get effectively permabanned eventually and public places can be kept one step away from being toxic cesspools they would otherwise turn into.
