"Enforcing a contempt citation means fining or jailing the Trump lawyers who argue before them, and possibly invoking contempt all the way up the line to Trump."

Annnnnnnd pardoned.

In other words, there's literally nothing the courts can do already so why do they even need to go as far as they are with restricting funds? So it's not made as public as a pardon would be?

Couldn’t the court just pay for the contempt proceedings by fining the defendants?
