I’m not so sure, Microsoft seems pretty content to take people’s money however they want to give it. They came back to steam two years after gamepass launched when they didn’t necessarily have to.

But they get more money if people have to rent their games forever than if they can own things. It's happening with everything really and companies always want the most profit.
