To be fair (but why?), in this case it makes more sense than "we do the same thing 10 times and hope something changes".
He was fined for the first nine all in one go, and was then told further infringements could theoretically lead to jail time. This tenth violation, though, pre-dates that "final warning" so it makes sense to judge it the same way as the previous ones. Any further violation after the verdict on those first nine should be considered willful etc etc and see him locked up.
Of course, a) despite it making sense, such leniency is never extended to any Juan or DeVon before a judge and b) I very seriously doubt Merchan will ever actually go through with it.

Meanwhile, in another trial, Cannon has taken the press attention being on Stormy to bury the confidential documents trial pretty much indefinitely.
Can you imagine if Hillary had ever seen a court room for her email server (LOCK HER UP) and the judge behaved anything like this? It'd have been a Deep State cover-up and an absolute blow up in right wing media a thousand times.

FTOP:
Trump's Classified Docs trial has been long delayed by endless motions which Judge Cannon is all too willing to grant delays for.

This Thursday was the deadline for Trump's Attorneys to submit a list of which classified documents they want to present as evidence at the trial.

Last week the FBI disclosed that some of the classified documents might not be in the original order they were in in the boxes that Trump had them in. The FBI went through each box, removed each classified document, placed it in an marked folder since it was CLASSIFIED, and returned the folders to the box. However, they said they can't guarantee they were returned in the exact same order. Likewise, the Special Master, which Trump insisted on to review the documents, may have changed the order in a box.

Trump's attorneys are arguing that they need more time to "assess how this affects the evidence". I'll help them out: NOT AT ALL.

This clearly has NO MATERIAL EFFECT on the documents, where they were found at Trump's, and what box they found in. The judge could simply have ruled that. Instead, she just ordered an indefinite delay.

Why? Because she really, really wants this trial to get pushed out past November.
