How is this supposed to be a punishment if the Olympics are still allowing Russian athletes to compete anyway?

Also

Individual Russian athletes untainted by the scandal will still be able to compete in competitions independently under a neutral flag.

Meh

It's punishing the country, not the athletes who didn't do anything wrong. "Russia" as an entity isn't allowed any credit for any competitions these athletes win, but the athletes themselves, the innocent ones, still get independent credit as individual athletes.

From what I can tell, WADA wanted to but the IOC said that each sport's committee would determine on their own for that sport whether russia would be banned
