Particularly for those just starting their career, it may be a case of self-preservation rather than inaction - i.e. the crew will usually only choose to deal with situations they can win the battle on.
although realistically sounds like said CSM
might now be getting a complaint that they failed to do anything about a self upgrader? Swings and roundabouts I suppose

besides, I thought the conclusion of the “can I take teaspoons etc off the plane?” thread was that the crew weren’t able to authorise theft (of goods or services)?
