Additionally:


There’s really no such thing as a “FamilyID.”


ALL AppleIDs are intended to be for individuals.


So, the individual AppleIDs are “logically joined” together into Family Sharing.


Family Sharing has additional FindMy features built-in. (very helpful when trying to find your partner’s device - w/o any additional sign-in being required.
