That's simple.  You are comparing apples and oranges.

The two have nothing in common.  One is because of something
affirmatively that a user did that may have caused harm to a third
party, the other is for doing nothing except providing incorrect
information into a database.

The two are not even similar, nor is the relationship between the
isp/user and registrar/registrant close enough to draw a proper
analogy.
