An alternative interpretation of the issue, is that if all available shared sets are returned from a `Get` query on the shared set service, and it should be possible to target those shared sets for mutations(e.g. using the shared set criteria service to add keywords to a negative keyword shared set). Currently, it seems that this is not the case, as attempting to modify a shared set owned by a parent MCC account fails withan error EntityNotFound.INVALID_ID
