Odds of Limited Run Games-style "exploitation" of this trend? That was already concerning for games.

Didn't disney do that? Decades ago they would have various movies available on DVD only at certain times, then they would be pulled.
I didn't have Disney Vault thing in mind when I came up with that. LRG's (and similar companies) schtick was that they're semi-upfront about pandering to collectors, especially with the extra goodies (sometimes of varying quality when they finally delivered).

EDIT: Especially for physical releases of streaming-only shows/films, since these companies mainly do that for digital-only games.
