It is as long as it's a source quality rip and thus the same bitrate.

I agree.

edit: I looked for a physical copy of halo infinite for 3 days yesterday in a city of 500,000 to no avail.

I thought a physical copy of halo infinite just prompts you to download the game?

While this is generally the case these days (there are installation files on the discs iirc, but they're usually out of date), the benefit of a physical disc is that you actually own the game. Digital copy it's tied to your account so if you get banned then you lose your games as well while a physical copy you can download across accounts and resell as you wish.
