Thoughts on deleting my Microsoft account, including my Minecraft license? (lemmy.world)

I haven't played Minecraft since 2015, but I get the feeling I might again in the new few years as I wanna find new hobbies. I know that game has changed a whole lot but I don't have any official online data on it.

I've had this Microsoft account for over a decade and its probably full of personal information that I wanna let go of, I've already exported all my data. I would need to pay $30 for another copy of Minecraft, same price I paid in 2013. I just did a bunch of searching and its not possible to transfer my Minecraft license to another account.

I would be mindful of the security aspects. It isn't bad but the connection is unencrypted and vulnerable to man in the middle attacks.
