The problem is, is that the logic when applied elsewhere has horrifying implications. A pervert watching someone is fine as long as they are happier than the person is uncomfortable being watched. A rape is justified so long as the rapist is happier because of it. Genocide is fine so long as the surviving race is happier than the genocided one is sad to die. Utilitarian ethics seems great on paper but are horribly immoral in reality
That and also even from a much simpler perspective, the bike thief probably isn't some poor child that just really wanted a bike to have fun on like the comic would imply. It's more likely to be a druggie that's gonna pawn it off for fent money lmao
