I don't disagree, but I think we should be careful about language

It's a fact that he's the only one with access to the UTXO's In question, and thus owns them.

That's the whole point of ownership: being the one with sole access and say over a given item.

And if someone else gains access to the key you no longer own it?

this is what you should avoid at all costs.

Not if they take it, which they will.

They might just hold onto the key, while you keep stacking into it. There is no way to know you have exclusive knowledge of a number.

Yeah, because if you'd have access to someone's wallet holding 0.24 BTC, you surely would simply wait until they themselves move it, huh? Wtf.
