Sam here. That kind of shot is what you would expect to see when two characters are approaching one another and about to engage in a battle or something.
Re: Should TFA ended with Luke saying to Rey "the force is strong in my family"
What, just blurt that out as she approached, apropos of nothing? A pretty unfocused and clunky attempt at ending on a dramatic line. The silence worked well.
The shaky helicopter cam on the other hand...

The movie doesn't need a mystical voiceover from the character that the opening scrawl just told us has vanished. It's not a LotR film, we don't need anything deep and epic sounding like Galadriel to set the stage.
It was a trailer line meant to hearken the audience back to RotJ and kickstart the nostalgia feels. It did that. It doesn't need to be somewhere in the movie, and any scenario where it would, wouldn't fit in to the rest of the film's tone--or be appropriate coming from Luke given his limited role.
It's just an advertisement.

The sentence is nebulous in it's conclusion. You could easily interpret it as "My family has the force. So do you, unrelated person."
Or it could be a line of dialogue intended as a nod to Kylo Ren's lineage--he's not speaking to Rey in the trailer. It could be from an unused flashback scene. Most likely it was trailer-bait used to get the audience speculating on who it is that's related to Luke. Kylo, Rey, John Boyega... It's to create hype. And it worked.
Seriously, stop overthinking it. It was an advertisement.
