As a small example, one of the most severe forms of punishment, was to ban an individual from religious rites, and another was to ban them from the construction of anything considered a 'craft' - something that would take skill.

Neither of those punishments banned the individual from the tuatha. They weren't exiled. They were still allowed to speak and be heard. They were still allowed to buy and sell. But they were no longer allowed to worship, or to create.
