The original context of this quote. Which has suspiciously been removed, is in reference to subscription models taking off.

The original quote is more along the line of "a subscription model isn't feasible unless gamers get used to the idea of not owning their games"

So really any line of logic is flawed because it misrepresents the original comment.

No it's not. I'm the guy who started this quote and it was on a Louis Rossmann video about a company who broke their customers' lifetime licenses to make them switch to their subscription model.
