If we're going to suggest that code and physical property are the same, then I would ask you to touch code for me.
If you can do that I'm prepared to give code all the same rights as traditional property. If you can't then you might consider that physical goods and intellectual ones aren't the same and MAYBE different rules should apply.

It's necessary but not sufficient for a loss of profits.

You must be very good at yoga because that's a huge stretch. Property and intellectual property are completely different things to the point that intellectual property is a misnomer.
