It is not for penalty, it just to limit the risk for the assurer. Else I
would agree. But how someone can rely on certificates, were you first have
to find out, how much the involved assurers earn?

I thought the discussion was on gross negligence, in which case penalising someone for misconduct is appropriate. In the case of good fake documents I doubt it's suitable to have the person liable at all.
