Technically they were not "banned", there was a process of requesting a permit and an application fee for said permit. With no gaurentee of approval.
So you could still own one, it is just a lot easier now without the extra hassle of required paperwork.
I think the permits may be a tactic to discourage people from impulsively buying a snake species that has more demanding requirements to be kept properly.
But yes, we live in a very stupid world indeed
