I don't view it any different than for example NFL players using stickum so they can catch passes. Fred Biletnikoff used it extensively and he is in the HOF.
I just don't see how you can ban a player or treat them differently just because they tried to get an advantage that wasn't breaking the rules. All professional athletes do that to some extent.
