You're GOING INTO teaching - so you haven't actually been there yet. You don't know how much trouble you'll have if a fellow teacher steals your lesson plans. Someone observing you sees the similarity, and brings charges against you, which you will then have to spend time (= money) defending yourself. And if that fellow teacher is a bit smarter than you, you end up losing your job, and maybe any possibility of obtaining another teaching position. So yes, it can hurt you, big time.
I mean if you wanna argue about this crap we can argue about this crap. The school I'll be teaching at has a centralized folder of all the lesson plans that shows which user accessed which files and when. On top of that, collaboration among the teachers is suggested hence the centralized folder and whatnot. Yes if I were to go and write a textbook or thesis or whatnot and that got reproduced, maybe that'll come back and bite me in the ass, but I'll approach that situation when the time comes.
