I say it's more difficult to deal with because the contracts have to be drawn up and filed individually, with a filing fee and lawyer time (or a paralegal).
Filing a marriage: one license ($35), filing at the Social Security Office (free), and change my name at the DMV (small fee). Quick, easy, and done. I get all kinds of benefits; marriage is a shortcut to them. I'm not even sure what all that includes.
