I wonder if there is an income differential (ie: one spouse makes more than the other) then there might be a tendency to evaluate each person's contribution separately - the "I bring more to our finances than you do." I guess whatever works. Like you, we have always lumped everything together into a single account. It seems a strange concept to me to do otherwise.
