that
they apparently have no respect for
That's a fine vision of life. But, be careful. How many couples had a child to save the marriage? How often did the troubles continue and now with a child in the mix?
Also, why does human existence and meaning have to be one size fits all for you? Why is your model the only one to be meaningful. I know several marriages that are childless, and they work well. Both partners content, fulfilled, and well rested.

Does a miserable mismatched couple staying together have great meaning?

Gay couples always have children who are wanted. No need to abort, and they have the number of children intended.
If we needed a one size fits all- all marriages should be same sexed. Thankfully, there is nothing wrong with variety.
