I'm not saying people should rush to do this even if they aren't comfortable with it. I'm saying that whoever is comfortable with it will have a huge financial advantage over a struggling two adult family.

This reminds me of the 'line marriage' from The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Moon_Is_a_Harsh_Mistress

Have wondered if there is an economically and romantically viable successor to modern marriage.

I can tell you as a participant in a two person marriage that I'm not sure it would work for me, but can imagine the benefits.
