No? Since the minor can still be prosecuted, it's not true that there are "no repercussions". And since the same prosecutorial discretion applies to the recipient, it doesn't mean that they will be arrested.
Mind you, I'm not a fan of selective enforcement, and I think it's something we should try to avoid. But I don't think the particular case you are referring to is likely to suffer from the downside you think is automatic.
