The question is wrongly composed:

The question asked for the opposite in meaning to the underlined: the answer seems to not be there, all points out to the meaning of the underlined

I'm sorry for any inconvenience this may cause, but I think the question ought to be nearest in meaning, because, to come down heavily on someone, means to punish severely or hardly.
Therefore, I will be delighted if you will review this question and effect changes, thank you
