No waiver claims or free agent pickups for the loser during the first month of next season: the roster they draft is the roster they ride through September. One injury turns the punishment existential. The league watches their bench like a nature documentary.
The long haul: this is not a one-afternoon sentence. With a time commitment of one month of next season, the punishment keeps paying out (for everyone else) long after the season ends. Long sentences need a written end date and a league-appointed enforcer who checks compliance.
