"Losing something" is a critical component of "taking something"
Not really. Look at grave robbers. Those dead people don't give a shit if they're losing anything. The point is that what they take doesn't belong to them. Tangibility is irrelevant. You now possess something that does not belong to you.
It's like @HellRatUFO says, own up to it. The more mental backflips you try to crank out to justify it, the more guilty you look.
Bringing up corpses as if dead people cant have possessions is a huge mental backflip. Your point is invalid. ---
