If they cared only about true ownership yea. But GoG doesn't have every game Steam has. If they had the same selection i could easily see more people switching. I and I'm sure many others use both.

It's a self-reinforcing cycle, unfortunately. GOG doesn't have the market share that Steam does, so publishers don't release games on it, which leads to people continuing to use Steam and maintaining its dominant market share.
