Perhaps they only need make an example of a few, and thus introduce an
element of fear for everyone else.

Not "a few," but rather quite a lot, albeit only infrequently, and at unpredictable intervals, with a very high inclusion/exclusion error rate -- an artifact of the absence clear and easily demonstrable line between compliance/non-compliance (which is itself an artifact of the 内部 [internally published only] nature of many of the related rules).
