Have you ever had to watch your parents fight over nonsense? Nope, sorry, I disagree. Why should kids be any happier if their parents stay together and fight all the time?

Because children make life enjoyable with your partner half the time, so you're in a dilemma : stay for the good half or quit for the bad half. Then you stay because maybe you can fix the bad half, and why not try getting help from someone. It's worth it. Even getting from good 50%/50% bad to 55%/45% is worth it.

My point was to stay together and do work to stop the fighting. Staying together and fighting all the time wouldn't be "bending over backwards".

I think the point is to stay together and not fight all the time.
