It's an unfair situation you are suggesting.
And how is it a punishment to make a team honor a contract they signed? That's such a ridiculous thing to say

No matter how you spin it, it's an unfair situation. Perhaps a compromise like each team gets one NMC that doesn't need to be protected or something?
Some teams don't have any NMCs, so perhaps they would get a free draft pick at the end of the second round or something to that effect.
