So no matter who we acquire flash points from, we still MUST purchase them before we can do any flashing of our ECU's. Correct?

So even though we've already purchased the license, the software, the hardware, we've downloaded the program, got it running, connected everything from the OBD port to our PC, performed a ROM dump, and are ready to flash the ECU, and since our dongles don't come with any flash points already through the original purchase of the kit, and if we haven't purchased any via web store, we can't do any flashing at all. Correct?

I suppose that's how EcuTek stays in business and is able to continue their research and development of their products. I get that. Nobody should work for free.

But they should at least explain all of that up front before one makes any purchases. I believe this is what the OP meant when he started this thread.
