Solely looking at the protective aspect and ignoring an assessment of the chance of recidive, the logical conclusion is that a relatively low sentence is in place. However, I don't think the parent is advocating that only the protective aspect should be considered. After all, not even the Scandinavian countries do that.

But when I read the sentencing memo, I was reminded of his point that protection is a key rational purpose of sentencing and moved to amend my comment.
