Edit: i dont know how many people feel this way, I beleave this and heard (verry biased, right to repair) people say this before.

Probably confusion but also abuse of the buisness model. "As a service" implies the recurrant payment is due to the service costing them resources to keep running. People like Adobe are just rent seeking. Also, the idea of ownership vs renting gets blurry.

Your examples, altho I havent thuroughly looked through them all look to be doing "as a service" correctly
