I just don't see that as a "better" solution than what we have here.

You keep bringing up baseball. Do any research into rampant drug cheating in the NFL, track and field, Tour De France, weightlifting, literally pick any sport and there has been selective "unfair" enforcement or no enforcement at all. Baseball at least actually did something and set some rules, eventually, and not just pretend nothing is happening. And now for racing this is an attempt to do something rather than ignoring everything. If you're going to pick on someone who has been incredibly financially successful while having a highly dubious history of drug violations and deaths...it's not the worst person to selectively enforce.
I'm not saying the rule shouldn't be enforced but give him the same penalty you give to others. Banning him for 2 years from Churchill seems excessive. Then throw in the Nyra and BC ban and it gets ridiculous compared to what others have received.
