While reading your other articles I stumble upon this post, and I have something to say on this as I had faced this in past.
My experience was not good about this strategy in past but it helped me to take important decision i.e to leave job.
While doing creative job like coding , bugs / errors happens , and to be frank sometime while working with new technology it happen a lot which gradually over time get perfected but only if a developer get a chance to improve skills, if the developer get penalized like this, developers thought get limited and focus on writing less codes and less scope the code to minimize bugs, I remember around 5 years ago my entire months salary get deducted due to this and which make me think to leave full time job which was the best decision of my life.
So accordingly to my past experience, it is very good practice if employer don't want developer to work freely and encourage developer to look for job somewhere else, and it's a bad practice of employer if employer want developer to work in peace.
Having said all that, I have also seen in some teams it's just for fun, those are fine, until if someone life and means of living not getting harmed, there should be no issue.
Hope I am able to express my past experience properly.
