Stealing signs

I attempted to point out that it is not the right thing to do, but it has spun out of control and changed topics to coachs out of the box.

My answer: It depends.

If the coach is in a "legal" position (in the dugout, in the coach's box) there's nothing to do.

If the coach is blatantly cheating (standing in fair ground, using binoculars beyond the fence), do something.

In between?

For me, if I'd allow the coach's positioning if he wasn't stealing signs, I'd allow it if he was.
