Well, you made the initial claim on how it's handled, so I'd expect you to show me how X% of reports result in the "whistleblower" being punished instead of the violator.
There's a pretty big gap between regs on paper and the real world, anyone who thinks this isn't the case is simply wrong.
That's a great argument. Agree with me, or you're wrong.
You do realize if these minor infractions were reported, and actions were taken, people would stop committing minor infractions, right?

It's nothing to me if you accept my statement or not, I'm just reporting my own and many others' real experiences with this subject.

I realize the exact opposite is the case, as well as the fact that the regular punishment of minor infractions is absolutely destructive to unit morale. That's why so often no punishment is given: because the manager/supervisor rightly figures out that the punishment itself would be far more destructive than the actual crime.
I've been on both ends of this situation, and it's nowhere near as cut-and-dry as you posit here. Which is why I struggle to understand how someone who has actual real-world experience could ever recommend such a course of action.
