Say this hypothetical scenario where 2 people punch someone in the face, one of them is an mma-fighter who punches someone so hard the person ends up in a coma, the other person is you who punches someone in a way that gives them a bruise on their face.
As you can see, the action is the same but because the first person is far more powerful, their actions have much more impact and therefore they should be punished more strict.
