As the article states, they can take your phone and try to hack it, but they can't otherwise punish you for refusing to give them your password.

They can refuse entry at any time, and legally speaking it's not punishment

No country can refuse entry to it's own citizen.

They must admit a citizen, but they can then arrest them immediately.

Right, but this subtree was specifically about non-citizens.

Except of course by denying you entry, marking you in some "no fly" blacklist, and other ways that are not oficially "punishments", but are very much so in practice...
