I believe I've seen suggestions regarding this for a long time. I seriously doubt it's a technical issue first and foremost. I think it's that publishers have no incentives to enable reselling digital copies, and it's probably pretty hard to come up with any without laws or something mandating it.

But what else can we do if we can't resell or return digital copies?

Vote with your wallet first and foremost and voice your opinion somewhere where it will be heard, I'm guessing. The wallet thing is the thing publishers primarily care about, and voicing your opinion in addition to voting with your wallet will make it easier for publishers to see why you voted the way you did with your wallet.

To be clear, this might not be a very effective way, but it's the best I've got. I've voted with my wallet regarding DRM for a very long time, but it's not very effective, and you might miss out on games you care about or get to play them late. Alternatively you could try to start some kind of a movement to change the existing practices but reasonably, that's also probably not going to go well. Sometimes there are results, but most of the time when people complain or try to organize anything, it doesn't seem to be very successful.
