You bring up something interesting, Acro.
The statement that stealing is bad doesn’t contain any explicit reason for why it would be not bad. Surface level analytics aren’t feasible here.
It doesn’t mean exactly was it says. It’s a generalized absolute. True often enough, but not necessarily true.
(My comments referred to natural and non natural realism.)

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
