When children are involved marriages should not be ended for trivial reasons and every effort should be made to maintain the family unit.
When no children are involved it's between you, your partner and if applicable your God.
You think it’s better for children to be raised within a toxic loveless marriage that they are forced to keep longer than either party wants than divorce?

Require a written contract of terms.... more than a pre-nup, so when someone wants a divorce they can't say "irreconcilable issues", that BS. For instance, your partner gets lazy and fat and you want to dump them. Terms to reconcile a problem included, and if unable to within the terms of the marriage contract, and divorce happens, the fat lazy person is penalized financially or with what ever assets the marriage gained together.
I've got lots more.
Well, I guess you’re right. Requiring a contract to marry would decrease divorce because instead of jumping through hoops to marry, people will just live together. That way divorces will go down. We’ll just call it breaking up instead.

Sometimes, yes. It often beats the alternative. Although nobody's talking force here. That's a bit hyperbolic.

We could also change common law.
Lots of ways, to make improvements. Point is .... I'm OK with easy divorce/separation as long as the front side is made to improve and support the commitment.
Sure, there are no repercussions to willy-nilly divorce.
I certainly wouldn't say there are no repercussions to divorce, but am saying it is a right that everyone should have.

Nothing about a contract improves or supports the commitment. Only the behavior of the people involved does that.

Marriage works best between mature adults but our society sometimes seems to be lacking in those lately.
