Change how Microsoft accounts are handled

I have a copy of Minecraft for the Nintendo Switch. My friend has a copy for the Xbox One. When I first got the game for my switch, I used my friend's account since I did not have one at the time. Over time, I made multiple purchases for my account. We have only recently realized that he is unable to join a world with me other than one I am hosting. This is due to us both being on the same account. However, he is able to join my world that I am hosting of he joins through another friend. I camnot make a new account as I have made non transfereable purchases on this one. I would appreciate it if it was changed so that the game recognizes that the account was on a different console that also has the game license. As it is now, I camnot play multiplayer because we share an account across consoles. It doesnt even make sense for the game to have checks such as this because Xbox Live already handles it. So please, change the way the Microsoft account system works so I can play the game on a different platform.

    That can't happen using the same account otherwise the game wouldn't work properly at all or you would basically be controlling each other not as a separate character.
