The real punishment is on the community as a whole.

This is true.

Except that the cheating was confirmed, and a more substantive assertion would be that allowing the cheaters to return relatively unscathed would be more harmful than anything else.
It's wrong to redirect fault in this to the community. The focus needs to stay on the cheaters, where it belongs.

In the case of P1999, using MQ meant no risk of punishment, and thus there was no threat to deter people from cheating.

Don't even know where this came from, bro, because you're dead wrong. If in no risk of punishment you meant they couldn't be caught, well...wrong on both counts.
Except in the case of raid guilds, maybe. But I'm not delving into server politics on that one, except to mention that the devs were obviously as shocked and overwhelmed as the rest of us were in regards to the scope of the cheating. I'd also expect some sort of response to the massive backlash their decision on "punishment" has created.
