In general human moral psychology, the supplier in the criminal dynamic is more tied to causation than the demander. So, the law attributes both the cause and effect of the crime to them, just like in drug cases, assault cases, human trafficking cases, arms smuggling cases, embezzlement cases, etc.
Rationally, this perspective is one-sided, flawed and unbalanced just like the entire human wisdom is. But unfortunately it has come to be the standard that hyperagency (supplier/giver) carries more guilt than hypoagency (demander/receiver) and so they're punished more harshly.
