You wouldn’t classify possession of private keys that control UTXO(s) as ownership?

No because these private keys may exist somewhere else and are not bound to you specifically

The 256-bit numbers are so freakishly large that it’s effectively impossible for properly generated private keys to be generated a second time elsewhere.
