Should a married couple with no kids, from outside the EU, approach the UK border control desk separately or together?

From comments:

A married couple without kids is still a family.

The gov.uk website says

You must ... move through passport control together if you’re in a family

https://www.gov.uk/uk-border-control/at-border-control

and

To avoid delays, when you arrive at UK passport control, please:
* stay together when travelling as a family

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coming-to-the-uk/faster-travel-through-the-uk-border

They don't define what they mean by 'a family'.

I suggest that you approach the desk together. If this is wrong then the worst that will happen is that the passport control officers will ask you to go through one at a time instead.
