We can multitask. Swatting is a problem that needs fixing. But also people abusing it is a problem, and applying meaningful consequences can help significantly in that regard. The "idiot CoD player" knew what they were doing, and should face a jury for it, while at the same time we can push to reduce the risk of anyone doing anything similar in the future.
Note, even if swatting was 100% safe, it's still would be a serious criminally false report, and consequences would help dissuade abuse.
