MacOS – Why is Options button for Photos app missing in iCloud settings

icloudmacosphotos

I've turned on family sharing and want to share photos. There should be a shared album in Photos called "Family" but it's not there. I've found instructions that say I have to use the Options button in the iCloud settings for Photos, but that button doesn't show up for me.

How can I get that Options button to show up?

You can manage these settings by opening the Photos app, and opening Photos > Preferences. Select the iCloud tab.

Here is a screenshot of the settings in Mojave – it's similar in later versions of macOS:
