I hate to break it to you but you don't really "own" the games on steam either. You have a license agreement with valve which they can revoke at any time, and you lose access to the games you paid for.

I mean, if it’s playable offline there isn’t much they can do about it, right?

Yeah but most people don't have their library installed at all times. I don't have the space for that.
