This is the exact reason. The same could be said for any game. DLC is always shared, but in-game store items are ALWAYS account bound. It’s likely one of the reasons they decided to go to the bazaar option. Not to mention, it’s easier to update, monetize, etc. There’s benefits to the in-game store, just as there’s drawbacks to it as well. One obviously being not able to share purchases. I’ve never played a single game that had a shared in-game store purchase across multiple accounts.
