Each of these games is now available for purchase on PC and also included with all XBOX Game Pass plans. If you already own a digital license for these games on console, that license now carries over to your PC or handheld.

It's like there's a whole article to read and not just a headline.

None of the OG Xbox games were digital licenses. They only came on disks.

It was xbox360 that started the digital downloads- they may have ported something to the digital store, but it would still be a digital port (or something with an emulation layer.)

Either way, if you bought the game for an og Xbox, you didn’t buy a digital pass.
