Revolut lets you 'buy cryptocurrency' - but if you can't take it out of the app, do you really own it?

So, around 6/7 months ago I started buying crypto using Revolut, which I'd been using for a while. I got to a decent little sum of BTC and ETH before coming around to the importance of owning my private keys (I was just speculating on price before, now I'm way more into the tech).I'm looking for a way to withdraw my crypto in the app only to find this is not possible - what the hell?!Now I make a point of utilising non-custodial banking apps like Plutus for fiat -> crypto. Crypto swaps, I use something like Uniswap - this way my funds go straight to me.End rant.
