As someone who works with kids-teens-young adults on the spectrum... it really difficult to find strategies that consistently work. And there are so many individual differences among the people that we work with, even if one method works for one, it doesn't work for another. There were even cases where one strategy worked one time, but doesn't work the next with the same person. But I do agree that 9/10 times, having consequences doesn't work with most of them.
