False comparison. The "youtube ban" was not issued by the global team.

As for the short ban of the csam:
It is useless to ban long term, because no matter if we ban or not, next occasion the spammer uses a different IP. But on one go he could post on 8-12 boards, and if caught in the act with a ban he can be stopped for that round. Why let him post 8-12 times, when can be reduced to 1-3?
The IPs the spammer uses are discardable for him, which means either Tor on clearnet address, proxies, or VPNs. All can be used by other people than the spammer. So issuing a long ban on them would block innocent people from posting.
