GG5, etc.

All the JEs I checked had the singular form. I think we can stick with that. It needs to be case-by-case.

  Comments:
We have a couple of "relatives/family" entries in here that are plural (and, I think, correct).  I think this should also default plural with other ~族 entries. daijs pluralizes (which kokugos almost never do...)

姻族 <-> 血族

https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/親族
Dichotomy is: 血族と姻族
  Comments:
This gets more important when you reach 
血族関係 vs 姻族関係, which in anthropology and law is apparently "consanguinity" and "affinity".  (There is a competing term 姻戚 to which we have currently attached the gloss "affinity".  I find this suspicious.  Got here from there.).
