Is that how it works?

yes

After a while, they probably just create new accounts?

They don't see that they are outlawed when they are logged in. It's a bit like a shadow ban.

But yes, they can create new accounts and start from scratch.

I understand it's not like X where they leave you a message saying you're suspended. It's better that way, so they don't know. I like it.

This shadow ban idea is genius.
