This is what I don't understand, the fact that punishments are differing between teams. Either a fine or a 3-0 win to the other team, not choose which one to give depending on which team it is that breaks the rule.

Not the same offence. The punishment for fielding a player who is ineligible through suspension are clearly defined in the relevant UEFA article I already quoted.
This didn't apply to Debrecen. The player in that case was ineligible but not because he was serving a suspension.
