Isthereanydeal.com tracks prices and histories of most PC games. You can always check there to find the best current price and compare to what is being shown. If Steam was showing me something different I would know thanks to this.
Unless that site is secretly run by a shell corp owned by Gaben which tracks you and presents you the same price as you’d see on Steam. The conspiracy goes all the way to the top!
there are several websites that track the prices of all steam games, and it’s not steam that sets the prices, it’s the publisher. the price you see is the same price everyone in your region sees, no matter who they are. on top of that, family sharing means only one person needs the game anyway as long as it’s not one you’re playing together, so if they did do this then people would find out very quickly.
That you know of

Plus family accounts kinda negate any use for such pricing schemes.
