It's less that aspect and more just the permanence of it. Yeah, getting beaten or caned or whipped or whatever sucks, but it's theoretically just pain. It's over after a while, you heal up, you move on. Prison carries the risk of that and worse physical abuse, in addition to the various mental punishments inherent to being locked in a cage long-term.
Ooh new struggle, which is more heinous caning or prison
Personally I'd prefer to get whipped raw than have years of my life eaten by prison time.
Well you might just have years of your life eaten by PTSD instead, so it's a dice roll
This is also true of prison
IIRC they do give them that choice and most prefer the caning.

Prison for sure.
Any particular reason? The idea of losing years of my life terrifies me.
