Answer:
I'm going to assume we're not talking about mistakes or the few teachers that have power issues, there are a few that enjoy punishing students but they are rare. As a Department Head, I've recommended firing a couple of them.
The only instances that I can think of when reasonable teachers punish students for things that are not their fault is when parents are at fault. Some issues like being late to school regularly, falling asleep in class (for younger students especially) and sometimes being improperly dressed for school can be the parents fault. We can't punish parents.
Sometimes there are issues that have to do with a student's family life that we aren't aware of. If there is an issue of not being able to afford school supplies or proper clothing for school, ideally the parent would make us aware of it but the student could also privately mention if that is the cause of not having required supplies. (A student should never lie and use this as an excuse if it's not true. Teachers will often spend their own money on kids in need and it will be a much bigger problem if it's found out to be a lie.)
Teachers don't just teach subjects, they also teach personal responsibility. We also hear a lot of excuses and spend a lot of time thwarting these excuses ahead of time. For example, when giving a two week report assignment, I will show the students how long they need to spend researching, when they need to finish researching, when to write an outline and when to write and revise the paper. Sometimes a student will come the day it is due and tell me their internet was down (we have a library with internet and even books) and they could not do the assignment. Even if that is true, that is something that I would fault the student for since they chose to wait until the last minute.
Some students will stonewall with it's not my fault and then I have to go through the series of choices they made that got them to making the excuse. The sooner they see it is their fault, the sooner they will make better decisions instead of relying on excuses. I also cannot grade and give feedback on things I can not see.
I would much rather the student give an honest answer like, "I waited until the last minute and the internet at home was down," than hear it's not my fault. If it were me, I'd dock the same number of points but the lecture would be much shorter and more pleasant for all involved
