If you’re sharing an ID like above then sure I guess. But who does that?

Probably a bunch of people since there are separate options for iCloud and iTunes Purchases Apple IDs within each device.
I've been listening to podcasts since 2007 through iTunes and started using Downcast in 2010 because it was so simple. Apple released their Podcast App in 2012, Family sharing started in 2014.
I tried Apple Podcasts and it synced all my wife's subscriptions. It deleted played episodes which was annoying because I fall asleep listening and have to download again. The recommendations are annoying, and the browsing is limited per category plus some new, and featured ones.
I keep using downcast because it's just a list of my subscriptions and episodes each with their own settings. No recommendations or other Podcasts and it syncs and is backed up to iCloud, not through iTunes.
