Something that can't be stolen is not property. You can only copy a stream of bits not steal. You can also replicate it to infinity. A pound of gold is real property. You can definitely steal it and you can't replicate it.

Maybe it's like Diamonds. You can absolutely make diamonds in a lab without any bloodshed and people will be like "the blood is what makes it special". Maybe the "original" bits make it special?
