Perhaps not for life, but sports punishments for cheating are absurd. Tatis lost less than 1% ($2.9/340M) of his future earnings for his cheating scandal. I’d rather leagues stop testing at all, versus only catching a small proportion of the offenders at random and the flipping a coin to decide on a punishment.

Unless you’re going to save urine samples and back-test them 5+ years in the future, anti doping orgs cannot effectively detect most newer compounds being used for doping.
