While my gut feeling would be to agree with you, I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss it. It could be a matter of other publishers are just putting up with it so they don't close themselves off from a large segment of the market.

There's plenty of devs that have had issues with Microsoft and other console storefronts over the years that have spoken out about it.

Way back in time, when TF2 was relatively new, Valve was pretty open about how they were incredibly kneecapped in their ability to release patches for the console version by the way the console online store and update systems worked.
