Im not saying that you’re wrong for wanting to be able to buy multiple copies but I’m curious as to what you’re reasoning is for not just having separate accounts for the people in your family.

Family members do have separate accounts, and I'd very much like to keep it that way. That is, I don't want to buy a copy for Billy's account and then another for Suzy's account — I want to buy, say, one additional copy (license, really) for the family library so that anybody can co-op with each other.
