I disagree. Penalties are given for those infractions so that teams do not gain a strategic advantage by purposely replacing engines/ transmissions or under fueling a car to put it on pole.

Under fueling a car gains about a 10th of a second. Would have to be a brave team to willingly gain a 10th in qualifying at the cost of 20 seconds in the race.
