My gut doesn't understand monogamy anymore. In movies, when the character sees their partner flirting with someone else, or even walking in on them cheating (minus the lying part), I'm confused why the character isn't loving and supportive. Getting mad seems so unrealistic.

Ahh, I see what you mean now. But I think the extent to which it would be harmful depends on whether there is any kind of emotional attachment to a third party. So it can't be universally determined.

fundamentally speaking, a relationship is a contract to facilitate having kids. cheating is violating a term of that contract, creates doubt as to whether you'll follow the rest of it, which can damage prospects of reproduction.

and ofc. on an evolutionary level damaging prospects of reproduction is basically the same as threatening life, so.

Otherwise, why transition to exclusivity in the first place? Just keep it fair by having an open relationship.
