Steal is like taking away a cupcake from your bakery.
Piracy is like analyzing the cupcake and thus revealing its recipe and I share it to everyone. (You wouldn’t lose your baked cupcakes but everyone makes clones out of them from the recipe.)
If you want to make up your own definition for stealing, then sure.
If you want to live in reality, stealing means taking something that isn’t yours. Has nothing to do with physical items. Data can be stolen, trade secrets can be stolen, valour can be stolen, identities can be stolen.
None of these require physically removing an item from someone else. They are about taking/accessing things without permission.
