And if you'll allow me to editorialize, there's a popular enough conspiracy theory that these platforms want to funnel you into cloud gaming for constant subscription revenue. I think the Why We're Making These Changes section is exactly why these services will never be able to deliver that service at a price people are willing to pay. It's expensive to provide this service, and they're making sure they don't lose any money on it by charging at least what it costs to provide.

It reads much more to me like trying to package up Xbox as a business that isn't trying to loss lead so that someone else can afford to buy it off of Microsoft's hands.
