My issue is that this is an interesting interpretation of the rules. 

The whole purpose behind the one infraction = punishment A, second infraction = much harsher punishment B system is to provide a warning shot before taking drastic measures.  So I guess the question here is: were the two trades separate infractions under the spirit of the rule?

I get that he broke the rules but this seems to take a rule that is meant to do anything and to use it in a situation to achieve an unjust outcome.  If it was truly meant to be used in the manner that it was today, then it should have been worded as "if you wrongfully trade the same pick numerous times" or "if you wrongfully trade picks numerous times".  When it's worded as "first offence: ____.  second offence: _____." it seems to imply that these are steps of punishment that are increased once someone becomes a repeat offender.  You can't call Ace a repeat offender when he was never caught/punished for the first offence. 

At least, if I was Ace that's one of the arguments I'd start with on my appeal.
