Loss of autonomy should receive a lot of weight when evaluating a punishment. Like if our goal is to actually build a better society, prison shouldn't be a lot worse than loss of autonomy. If you are going to release someone, do you want them to be in a worse state when you do that than when you took away their autonomy? Of course we are collectively deranged, so oh well.
