Well, it could be because marriage is about more than sex. You could just as easily say "well, you can have a completely monogamous sexual relationship, so why bother getting married?". Marriage is what the two people involved in that marriage make of it. If being "open" works for them, then why should they not practice it for the sake of adhering to what a marriage is "supposed" to be?
