You have claimed above that (a) it is not a crime unless someone presses charges (b) it is not a crime if no one tries to stop it (c) it is not a crime if other people (FAs) are doing similar things also . These claims are not true. You are correct that (d) it is not a big deal because the value of the stolen items is small, but that is a different criterion you have just raised, and (a)-(c) continue to be incorrect criteria.
