What's difference between family and other shared album?

What's the difference between a family album, which comes with iCould Photos family sharing, and any normal shared album? I don't see any difference, it looks like the family album is just an automatically set up shared album, no? Are there any extra features?

Nothing special about it other than it is visible to all family members by default.
