However, locking a single piece, while perhaps an arguably greedy action, is not necessarily one that I would say is morally 'wrong.'
When you lock any loot at all within PF, you are explicitly using strangers to ensure you and you alone are entitled to a particular piece of loot. I think that level of greed is morally wrong. Now if you play with a static, linkshell, or free company in which everyone knows eachothers' goals and and work together long-term to achieve them for everyone, that's something I'd be on board with.

But picking up random strangers just to use them? Not cool with me. It strikes a chord.
