visitation rights in hospitals don't usually allow for such contracts, or family can override them.
adoption rights don't often work otherwise.
health benifits don't transfer from your employer to a partner by contract of your making.
the list goes on.
oh, and some states are trying to ban contracts that would approximate civil partnership.
