Aren't all the games on GOG DRM-free? If so, there's not much difference here than giving someone a USB drive filled with the installers.

Pretty sure that's the technicality GoG is using when they keep saying all this sort of stuff. Their terms of service have effectively the same language about purchases only being a license that Steam does.

No, they've had DRM games for many years now.

Not many, but some.
