The diapers aren't worth much, but when theft drives retailers to reduce their hours or close their stores, that's a cost to society.

Also they aren't stealing one pack of diapers. They are filling trash bags and walking out of the store because they know the loss prevention can't physically stop them and west coast cities have implemented policies that make it useless for police to arrest them (charges get dismissed by activist DAs).
