Why would people buy from the legal platform if there’s no consequences to using the free platform that’s just as convenient?

Because legal platforms backed by large media groups can create platforms more convenient than those pirated options.

The reason people use services like Steam and GOG over piracy is because piracy requires more work due to legal restrictions

Yes, this just shows that those services are crap, nothing else.
