In case I misunderstood, yes, you can buy them on the platform and then you own it the same way as any other platform. You can get a 20% discount on games that are still in game pass too.

You don't own it on most platforms though, that's my issue. If they decide to update it, break it, and stop releasing it they can, because they own it and we're are just renting it.
