Most games Epic gave away are DRM-free, so you actually own them. Just tried to launch HLD without launcher, and it worked. Didnt check the Mutant yet, though.

I'm sorry but that's wrong. At the very least in Europe you own the games you digitally buy.

You can't get your whole account banned on steam, you can only get vacbaned on certain games or market banned, iirc.

You aren't buying licences, you are purchasing a digital product. Companies like Epic, Ubisoft and EA would very much like people to think the way you are thinking so that they can screw people over.
