I think OP is saying that, while you can buy a book to read it, you do not own the copyright to that book. They’re saying it’s basically the same idea with GOG.
The illustration does break down, but I think their point still stands.

You can resell, trade, give, lend a book you bought. You’re just not allowed to do the same with any copies you’ve made. At least where I live

There are no products for which you get the IP because you bought one unit.
Not a book, nor a car. So I don’t see how that’s relevant.
Sorry if I misunderstood your point.
