I hear you, on not scaling it for a family. I make it for one or two people at most (a full AeroPress can be shared for two, unless you're a Real Guzzler).
I mulled about the burr grinder in the past, but then I already had the Bosch blade grinder[+]. It does the job spectacularly well for most use cases. I live in a small apartment; and minimize 'nice-to-have' devices. (And given the predicament we're immersed in, I feel even more disinclined to buy more 'things' that I don't really need. One day, I might get the burr grinder as a 'reward' for all the discipline I show in most aspects, or some other justification that I can coax myself with. :-))
As for coarseness, I'm living with a "workaround": 12 pulses (manual on-and-off; yeah, annoying) with the blade grinder to get the right coarseness for French Press, which is now a "weekend delight".
