15. I disagree
The punishment was put in place because Michigan and Florida broke the rules and decided to have their pledged delegates be elected earlier than was elected. That wouldn't be happening under a revote and, in fact, would be putting them WAY farther back than they were originally scheduled to vote before the initial bump happened in the first place.

Besides, I think states won't try as hard to move their places up in future primaries. Not after this year where every single state from January to June will count a whole lot.
