It's not just next of kin I'm concerned with, it's medical visitstion/decision making that would otherwise have to be proactively dealt with, and even then, can fall through if it's not "as normal."
Same with power of attorney/beneficiary. A huge amount of people don't deal with this until its too late, and it's significantly more difficult to legally navigate.
Even in the u.s., most services are available for non-married couples, it's just an amount of hoops to hop through that don't make sense to deal with

Not an issue I'm the UK, non married have the same visitation rights in all hospitals

I agree with this point, however "get married because then you don't have to fill out as many forms" seems to be a reason that falls flat for me why it would be a reason to "run away"
