Maybe it is a misunderstanding on my side, but I agree with Scott. How
could this influence the network in a way that one can speak of an
"attack"? My idea was that by stating a family, I say that *my node*
musn't be used in a circuit together with other members of that family,
no more, no less.
So, by misconfiguring the family on my side, I cannot hurt the network
more than (in the extreme) by running no node at all.
