I don’t see a problem with this. That’s are about a dozen things people need to align on if they’re going to get married. Politics seems sort of critical.
Alignment is of course still critical for marriage. The increasing difficulty or low probability of alignment is the problem.
Only a problem if you are trying to maximize marriages, which does not seem like a good metric to maximize.
The rise of single parent households does seem like a legitimate issue to me. If the non marrieds aren't having kids fine, but if they end up having kids and then hating each other thats not.
The same trend applies to all forms of close relationship. So no, it is a problem if you want to maximize any form of social cohesion.

Does it?
I agree, seems like a really fundamental conflict you'd want to pre-solve before having children.
