Well, if I understand this correctly, the term "Bannisment" is a bit of an overstatement. What my current understanding is that this level of response is more akin to a reff throwing a flag on the field, indicating a penalty. And this "offense" merits undisclosed time in the penalty box.

And of course, while in the penalty box, you can not come on to the ice. But you are not actually thrown out of the stadium either. Nor relegated to the locker room.

From time to time I self-impose a similar penalty when I find myself overly wrapped up in the soap opera. This is a valuable tool, if used as such; and not so dramatical an event as is currently associated here.

Or perhaps, I still do not understand.
