I reckon championship consequences should absolutely not influence stewarding decisions. That would be just completely random.
That said, why should FORESEEABLE consequences of an action not influence the severity of a penalty. Why should an inherently very dangerous and illegal move not be punished harder than a similar illegal move at much slower speed where the consequences for the position and safety are foreseeably much more severe? Why should someone squeezing a competitor off on a tarmac run off be punished the same as squeezing someone into the wall in the tunnel of Monaco?
I would be interested for someone to challenge that logic.
