First, what in this quote has anything to do with the previously noted "Yes"? Second, it would be goofy to ask for the differences, so could you explain any relationship you've seen asserted between "deterrence" and "recidivism" that would amount to some sort of equivalence?
You really did miss it, didn't you? He was just making fun of you for using the word deterrence imprecisely (to be kind). You can not deter a person by killing them. You could look it up.
