I feel like the term “completely unavailable” isn’t really the term they should be using here. Maybe “not currently being monetized” would be a better choice?

Yeah right, because there is not a single game I have ever seen in my life I can't get in less than ten minutes (I'm being generous here). I have entire libraries of ROMs for old systems on my PC and those that are not are simply a web page away.
