idk i view having kids as like 'starting a company' - you agree with someone to commit to working on an external project. And this just requires both people give enough attention to prioritizing kids, it doesn't mean you have to forbid extrarelationship interactions.
If your partner impregnates another person, your children will likely be financially impacted for the rest of their lives, and that child will be denied the attention of two parents. This isn't an edge case, it happens all the time

I guess women could try to require that their parents only sleep with other people who are demonstrably sterile, but nobody actually does this and everybody just assumes the risk of a BC failrure/manipulative partner

Everybody in every kind of relationship assumes the risk of a manipulative partner.

This should be a shrinking problem though, right? (thanks to current birth control and forthcoming invisible male birth control)
-
Current birth control is more than adequate for someone who is conscientious and *really* wants to avoid pregnancy. But not everyone is conscientious and not everyone really wants to avoid pregnancy

If your business partner starts another company it's going to greatly impact the first company. I've seen both instances up close and they seem more comparable that I would have originally thought.
