They really nailed Backwards Compatibility/Continuity (Gaming)

I'll put it this way, with the recent upgrades to MCC, I plan on playing through all the Halos again, and I'm 100% sure, even if they had backwards compat for Halo/Halo 2, I would not bother finding those disks and putting them in to play the OGs, because it would be as I call, too hard basket.
I totally understand this, but it's just weird that the two literal best selling games on the Xbox are not part of the backward compatibility program. The whole idea behind back compat is to avoid having to buy the game again right? So the solution is to… buy the game again as MCC?
Unfortunately yes. What would be better in their eyes—the customer using their own disc for free, or making them buy a $60 c/p port with achievements they have to earn again—and then buy another c/p for the PC?
