Microsoft just raised the price of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate to $29.99/month, and fans aren’t happy. Many are canceling, some are calling for a boycott, and even Microsoft’s website is struggling to keep up.

Even there you only get a license. You don't get to resell the copies. Or claim ownership.

Legally sure, but what people mean is you have a copy and there's no DRM/online check-in to execute it and play it. Steam offers DRM-free titles too, it's entirely up to developer discretion.
