Maybe it's that I'm generally an optimistic person, but I don't understand that saying the same way as you do.
I don't think of it as meaning 'punished' literally, but more that "you'll get what you deserve". So I take it to mean that doing good deeds will get you 'punished' with good in return.
It's a bit like the phrases "I couldn't care less" and "I could care less" meaning the same thing - because the latter should be said ironically.

The fact that you had to edit your reply 2 times in 12 minutes says otherwise
Means what? I have to contend with my own Dunning Kruger effect on a daily basis - ie. It is easy - but unhelpful in communication - for me to forget how hard it was to originally discover and learn the information of so long ago now so tersely stated. In the terse form as I have taught my own children, no less, but with much more ample elucidation.
