Morality is a question of whether or not something "should" be done.
Its fine to say something is valuable and "this is how something gets done". Those are evaluations of Economic Value. Economic Value is Subjective Truth, Morality is Objective Truth. There is a difference.
NAP and any other relativistic moral perspective cannot say something "should" be the case just by itself, due to its lack of absolute Moral Truth.
I agree NAP is how Prosperity comes about due to greater production than consumption, purely from not taking other people's stuff. Being a productive person does not mean they are a Moral person.
Just because you can do it, doesn't mean you should do it. AnCap is a Legal framework that requires a Moral framework to underpin it, otherwise its merely "I prefer this rather than that"
Objectivity != Observable
Legality != Morality
