Is there any confirmation that Family #2 is actually a common family? I'd imagine that 99.99% of guests will stay at the same hotel the same time if both are on property. They'd have to figure out what to do what they're belongings for that 4-5 hour period between check-ins and check-outs.
Plus, its probably easier for Disney to park guests in one place for a long time, then to have to worry about getting several rooms ready, and worry about a lot of other logistics.
I think that thinking of a way to close a loophole that creates a lot of other loopholes is dumb when its really not something that makes much logistical sense.
On my first trip to Disney we ended up staying at three different resorts. We actually had our own vehicle, so moving wasn't a problem at all. Disney bell services will also move bags from resort to resort for split-stays. It's probably more common than you might think, but you're right that by far MOST guests stay at one place for their whole trip. I have no idea what the percentages are though.
