    @jenniferdoleac Interesting, thank you! Do we have an idea of the shape of the relationship between the probability of punishment and the probability to deter crime? (Linear, concave, convex…) I guess a « tolérance zéro » policy would push the probability of punishment much higher…

      @jenniferdoleac … but the question would be: is the cost of pushing the probability of punishment higher worth the reduction in crime?
