Look, as long as we both agree that theft is, by definition, a crime, which it is, then we're on the same page.
My point was that the way some people are talking makes it sound as though theft sometimes isn't a crime or isn't morally reprehensible.
I fully agree that wrongdoing exists on a spectrum and that different offenses carry different moral weight.
That has never been the point of contention.
