The issue you linked to is not the same at all. That issue is where a user's skin changes to the host of the world they join. This issue is that all of my family members are unable to use skins that were purchased by the parent and now have to purchase their own, rendering many dollars that were spent on the parent account that doesn't play much Minecraft as wasted. Now we have to re-buy the same skins for my kids to be able to use them; skins that they've been using for YEARS. 

Very, very different issues.  

My family is on xbox and this is a newer issue for us as well. We've been able to share skins up until about the update with the foxes (per my kids). This is equally a big deal for us and will be a deal breaker if this is the new Minecraft world we are living in. Like you, we specifically bought all of the minecraft content on the primary account as it was originally our only account and then my kids had their own accounts but they were very young. Now the kids can not access our many, many skin packs we purchased over the past 10 or so years.

I've spent a lot of money with Microsoft over the years. I get that everybody wants to profit like Fortnite but laying waste to your long time loyal customers to make a quick buck is not ethical. We will not be spending another dollar on Minecraft anything if this isn't resolved. As a technology advocate, people often ask me what they should buy. When people like me post on social media that we spent and now lost large amounts of money in Minecraft, it tends to be heard.
