Penalize is a big word here.. Google attribute to every website a quota named "crawl budget".

It is about the number of pages to crawl per a timeframe (a day for simplifying), so if you tire its bot crawling low value / light content pages, it will difficultly discover the pages that are good and leverage value to users..

Another angle : Every page that i push to Google should have a ranking goal..Is it unique ? does it contain valuable content ? Accessible by one unique URL ? It targets what keyword(s)..?

This could be a basic framework for deciding what type of pages should i index in my website.
