I'd imagine this was the plan from the get-go or at least a consideration. I don't think they swindled anyone necessarily, they weren't banking on sales with it being on Gamepass, so this makes perfect sense IMO.
Not the users, but I assume MS paid them something for putting it on GP. Unless they just treated that as a de facto exclusivity deal.
