The penalty I suggested was so extreme I didn't expect it to be taken seriously.

And I would counter-suggest that a golfing penalty could be applied on the analogy of MLR 8G-6 which sanctions a golfing penalty for a riding a buggy when not permitted. Both riding a buggy and using a trolley have to to do with similar use of specific equipment - the objective being to reduce the physical effort and strain of getting round the course. What do you think?

The legitimate way to introduce a new golfing penalty, not explicitly covered under the Rules or MLRs, is to do it as a Code of Conduct that is posted as a local rule. That does not require seeking approval of the governing bodies.
