Comment (by tyseom):

 Hello leeroy,

 thanks for your input.

 Yes, the description of the family field in the relay details object:
 {{{
  family array of strings optional

 Array of fingerprints or nicknames of relays in the same family as this
 relay. Omitted if empty or if descriptor containing this information
 cannot be found.
 }}}

 Is definitely suggesting that it is not the raw family string from the
 descriptor, but the effective family (due to "in the same family").

 So there are basically two (3?) options:
 1) make the implementation do what the documentation says
 2) update the documentation to match the implementation
 3) or: have two explicit fields: declaredfamily and effectivefamily

 If I could choose I would take (1) or (3) ;)
