That's the old way of handling it. (And I think it still works.) They have a new implementation that's just the family group admin sending an invite and the recipient accepting.
Which only works If you were in the same Network atleast for me
After I made my comment I saw someone else make a comment about getting a message saying that. I never did. Mine just worked. Weird.
If one changes their password afterwards, will the share persist? Old Steam family sharing broke after changing the passwords.
Should still work. Not 100% sure tbh
