You seem to think this experiment was performed on the Linux kernel itself. It was not. This research was performed on human beings.
It's irrelevant whether any bugs were ultimately introduced into the kernel. The fact is the researchers deliberately abused the trust of other human beings in order to experiment on them. A ban on further contributions is a very light punishment for such behavior.
