Yes it could be said that someone's denial of service causes harm but I only think that makes sense if they have a proper right to that service.

I think there would be harm in this case if someone went to Mojo's establishment for a scheduled appointment and was turned away because of sex or sexual orientation. And particularly if he was told that in a less than tactful way. If you have an appointment, or if you walk into an establishment that says "no appointment necessary," you have a reasonable expectation of service. The harm may be insignificant or significant. If you took a day off from work and struggled with your back pain to get there, you've been harmed. If Mojo fails to deal with this potential in some constructive way, he is wrong.
