Being terminally online has reinforced instant gratification and, generally, dopamine hits for novel content. Both are the antithesis of long-term happiness/stability.

Sure. But separation rates have decreased since the internet.. Generally seperation is the lowest it's been in 50 or so years. In some places marriage is slightly more sanctimonious than a tossed coin... just.

But my point remains that not much else would we look at statistically and say, "Yeah, that's definitely the way it's meant to be. Just a few outliers here and there."
