Some boys at my middle school were fighting. The headmaster took them into his office and gave them candy floss. They came out somewhat confused but didn’t stop fighting.

Depends on who's being punished (and for what).
Telling 13-year-old me to go to my room and no phone for a week wouldn't have done shit but may have been devastating for other people that age. Taking away my allowance was extremely effective for keeping me in line whereas taking away Elon Musk's allowance would just slightly annoy him.
