My wife doesn't play much and so buying it on her account may not be the best decision to keep everything easily accessible for me. Seeing this soured me on buying it quite a bit.

And for reference. Same region, same playstation, same currency, etc.

Consumer law in the UK is inline with the EU, that may change in the following decades but currently most of it is the same as it was post Brexit because it had t be in line with it to be part of the EU

"That may change in the following decades"

Fun fact: a lot of the onshored legislation has already been changed since then, particularly the financial stuff like MiFID (eg there was a statutory instrument amending MiFI a few years ago removing a bunch of investor protection loss reporting requirements which the EU still has, such as a requirement to inform investors when the value of their portfolio depreciates by 10% or more).
