Point of order - Vettel took 27 seconds to slow SUFFICIENTLY to meet the required standard. In actual fact he slowed more or less immediately upon the production of the red flag but did not get down to the required 'delta' until nearly 30 seconds after.

Still a crime and the punishment is justified for sure but it's unfair to suggest that he completely ignored the RF for 27 seconds.
