The stolen parts have serials on them that get blacklisted. iOS isn't going to run with a camera that's been marked as stolen.

And the consequence for this is that you can't replace your own camera - or home button. Instead of a thief stealing your phone, Apple steals your phone. Not worth it. They could still track it by IMEI when it connects to a network.
