As to divorce laws, my suggestion would be to marry good people.

Ok, taboo "good person". What kind of evidence do you expect to see to be sure that the person you're planning to marry is "good"? With what probability? What if you're wrong?

I mean entirely traditional old-fashioned virtues like honesty, fairness, and kindness.

LOL. I wonder how you cross streets. Are you quite sure no one will run you down? With what probability? What if you're wrong?

There's a rather acute shortage of people with old-fashioned virtues these days.

A lot less then winding up in a divorce.

Thankfully, I don't need many :-)
