At that point I'd feel entitled to keep the games I bought by pirating them.

It doesn't matter how entitled we think we are, pirating won't give us access to e.g. online play or Steam Workshop, which are critical to many games.

		Many but far from most. And part of the services provided by Steam is the multiplayer experience, so you definitely cannot expect to keep that without paying Steam, unless the developers want that too.

This is the right approach. I only buy games if the money goes to the original creators, not some parasitic company who bought the "IP".
