I think all games, even those in physical media, are licenses to play them, is what OP means. You might be thinking of download carts, which doesn't contain game data, but makes you download games.

Well yes that’s what I assumed they meant, a non-download cart wouldn’t be just a license, it would be the license and the game data

I miss HDDVDs. Their better error correction will be missed more, soon, as this stuff degrades a bit.
