What you wrote makes me view the Guardian take suspiciously rather than the OP and also fails to address in any way the argument since you -conveniently- ignore all but a tiny fraction that you found a Guardian opinion piece to seemingly not support.

An opinion piece that's also demonstrably false by the way, NZ does not have one of the highest incarceration rates in the developed world: https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/incarcera...

Looking at your chart, it has NZ at 188, UK at 114, FR 87, Germany 69, Canada 107. NZ looks higher on a skim than most (all) of Western Europe. What do you think I'm missing?

You can keep rearranging words around trying to make reality fit your expectations, but I'd say this isn't a useful modeling strategy for going about life. This is what you're missing.
