Because you destroy the monster which means you would be destroying the item you want to steal.

To an extent. If your character is a fencer, archer or other precision hitter, all enemies that are humanoid should still drop all armor, weapons and any personal items. If you double cast a bahamut blast on a caterpie im not sure you should get gil much less exp from that.

So yeah steal shuld be useful if you are packing auron(x), dagger(ix), vivi, and riku in a hypothetical party because the three attackers would obliterate any items held by the enemy. However if you are using the monk, ninja, redmage and geno as long as no over the top skills are used you think your characters would be rolling in money and spare equip
