If someone steals your bike, Ma'at seeks not to punish them as much as it seeks to return your bike. Of course this isn't always possible - in cases where you can't get your bike back, you might be compensated with something else. The point being: Ma'at is an active force for restoring balance when there's been a violation..... If you want to go further with this discussion...
