You overlook that she never would have earned $250,000 p.a. as a clean runner.
So she didn't really lose $1,000,000 in these 4 years. On the contrary, she illegitimately made that kind of money before her bust.
And that she went for this lawyer for $250,000 and the absurd 🌯 🌯 story, instead of admitting guilt and taking the 3 year ban, was also her decision/gamble.
In conclusion, I don't see a "devastating punishment". On the contrary, she gets to keep all that cash and her records. Sad!
