I see how buying one supports the trade, but taking one for free wouldn't. Kind of like I hate to support large chain petstores, but I wasn't doing them any favors when I snatched up the ball python they had up for adoption. It was deemed unsuitable for sale, so there's no way they could profit from it at that point. In that same vein, taking some random person's T that they'd have gotten rid of anyway doesn't support wild harvesting.
