Totally different circumstances. GSP was stepping away from the sport for god knows how long and in the case of Cruz not only did they not have a timetable for his return but it was unfair for Barao.
There was pretty much no reason for UFC to strip Jones. They've created interim titles over a lot less.

Jon Jones leaves court a free man. No felony. No fines or fees. Ordered to make 72 appearances for youth outreach.
Jon Jones, before an Albuquerque judge, received no jail time; gets supervised probation for up to 18 months.
The former UFC light heavyweight champion pleaded guilty on a felony charge of leaving the scene of an accident and was granted a conditional discharge by Judge Charles Brown in Bernalillo County Second Judicial District Court on Tuesday. Jones was given 18 months of supervised probation.
Brown required Jones to make 72 appearances doing work with charity and speaking with children. Once the probation period is over, Jones will be re-sentenced per the terms of a conditional discharge. He has not been convicted of a felony and likely will not be if he fulfills the terms of his probation.
