Thanks!
Correct. You can only make progress on your active account.
I think I replied to the wrong message, or just had my brain explode. Either way, here is a story about you enjoying Cross Save.
You setup Xbox as your "Active Account." This is the set of characters, gear, and progress you want to move forward with. You link your PC account and enable Cross Save on it. You can now play 2 hours of Crucible on PC, switch over to Xbox to do the Nightfall before bed and all this progress will be made on your "Active account" which was your OG Xbox characters.
