Family sharing + Pro Game + Play the same game?

First of all, love Stadia.  And the constant improvements are cool and appreciated!

We have 3 Chromecasts and 3 controllers.  I just turned on the Stadia Family sharing and began sharing.  The sharing works great.  

But really, the main reason we have 3 is so we can play co op games.

If we all want to play Pac Man (at the same time).  We have to buy the game for each account, I understand that.

But here's where I get confused.  Say we want to play Human Fall Flat or Orcs Must Die 3.  Two great co op games that we got for being Pro subscribers. 

I can't claim it on my daughters account?  It seems like family members can't claim Pro games?  So that means that family members don't get all the Pro benefits.

So maybe I just figured it out typing that last line.. if we all want to play Pro games we all need Pro subs.  Is that correct?

So $30/month if we want to play together?  Family sharing isn't really for that.

you did pretty much answer your own question in this line "I can't claim it on my daughters account? It seems like family members can't claim Pro games? So that means that family members don't get all the Pro benefits."

family share on Stadia is like having only game discs and having as many as you have bought physically. at least from what I am seeing family share as
