I think the word you are looking for is "deterrent."

I think by "precedent"  they must mean --  the publication of this result in 
the news should help deter other bad actors from trying the same shenanigans.
The result of an arbitration does not set "legal precedent" in the sense 
regarding a matter of law -- that only comes from a question going to an 
appellate or other high court.
