What? All dollar bills are the same (functionally anyway) but if I take one from you that’s theft.

Why would the uniqueness matter?

I'm feeling like copying a finished product that is generally available for sale is not the same as capturing the developer's keystrokes in real-time.
But they're both theft, no?

Again, a dollar bill is a widely-available for sale finished product.
