What does the phrase "regression to the mean" have to do with punishment?

(a) generally speaking, people have good days and bad days; if someone has a "bad day," we may accept the illusion that the punishment caused this "regression to the mean." (b) generally, people who are going to screw up are going to keep screwing up, and just retribution is only fair. (c) punishment is a form of regressing to a meaner and crueler kind of behavior (d) sometimes we punish someone for a poor performance and they do a better job next time, not because of the punishment but because they just returned to a level of performance closer to their mean, or average, performance.
