It's MY content, originally made years ago, shared with a different audience. I see nothing wrong in not letting my NOT-PAID WORK to get a few cents by not letting it get forgotten on a different platform.

The question is not "who owns the content" in this particular case.
It's what Google sees. If everyone had the same plan that you did, and just copy/pasted old articles that Google already indexed on a website somewhere and shoved it on steem....
Google would start seeing steem nothing more old recycled content and not send visitors here.
I also think it's a disservice to your audience. It's like "here, eat some of this stale content I wrote years ago. I don't want to spend the time to write new, fresh things."
I think its terrible and some spam bots that look for duplicate content "on other platforms" may eventually find you. You'll be sorry when your reputation starts suffering. It's happened before.
Good luck.
