It's a little too late for punishing starlight now.

If they wanted Starlight to pay for her crimes, they should've done that right when she reformed at the end of season 5. I think season 6 would've been better if Starlight was imprisoned in Tartarus until the season 6 finale, where she saves Equestria and earns her respect back. After that, she moves back to her home village.

Starlight's redemption seemed very forced and rushed compared to some others, and having her join the mane six (seven now) kinda ruined the show. What made Sunset Shimmer's redemption much better is the fact that she wasn't just instantly forgiven by everyone. She had to earn back everyone's trust and respect. Doing the same thing with Starlight would've been the best thing for the show.
