i think its more of a case of "finders keepers".
an item is left in the middle of a town square. you pick it up and say " ill share it with everyone" you begin letting one person after another hold it for awhile. then a police officer comes along and say "well, actually, it turns out that item belongs to this gent over here, give it back to him"
you feel a loss because you no longer have access to the item by you never had a legal right to keep it and pass it around in the first place. your claim to it doesnt supersede that of the owner.
