Steam games are just license instead of a game?

Isn't it obvious? It is exactly the same logic when you buy an online game from Nintendo Store for the Nintendo Switch, PS Store from a Playstation console, Xbox, etc? Steam is also the same leh. Wonder why people are so "overreacting" over this piece of news? If you want to own a game, just go to other platform and buy physical game disc. Although you are buying a game from Steam store, the game is still permanently tied to your steam account. Legal terms might say its like a license but u still play your game, so there is nothing so serious about it. To be frank, nobody ask you to buy games at full price. Always buy at discounted sales price.
