Yup, that's why they hide this nonsense in the TOS or whatever. If the intent was clear upfront, they'd have to reduce prices. So that means people don't really understand what exactly they're buying.

I'd like to add that anything I own, I should be able to sell. Whether the platform supports it is another story, and I think it's acceptable for the platform to take a cut since there's work involved moving licenses, but if I own it, I should be able to lend, sell, or gift my copy to someone else.

this part of it is really frustrating for me.

step 1. purchase game that looks cool
step 2. disagree with TOS
step 3. too bad, get fucked

:(
