The 3DS and Wii U eShop was available for more than a decade, a full 6 years after the Switch was released. So all in all I’d say it was available pretty long, especially considering that there was no authorization required to download a game, so they were paying for servers to give away games for free
Transferable licence.
They can be sold, gifted, inherited, etc.
That inheritance is going to be on a pretty short timespan, since 3DS and Wii U online services and downloads are already gone.

I think an inheritance should probably last longer than a decade. This is still an arbitrary expiration date that’s bad for the customer.
