Jurisprudentially, you're using chokey in completely the wrong way here.
It's meant to be a punishment for a criminal offence.  You're trying

no such provision in our judicial system, and trying to bend it in that
direction won't work.

You're probably right, zefram. But I didn't see any other sentence as appropriate for compelling performance of a duty. What sentence would you have given?
