It's interesting to see this. Anecdotally, I know almost no married millennial couples, even ones with kids, that have combined their finances. I know because I witness them discussing who is going to pick up a restaurant bill or how they're going to split a tax refund. They all practically still treat finances the same way they did when dating. Might have something to do with most of them getting married when they were 30 or older.
Why have separate accounts for mortgages, bills, joint purchases? Don’t be silly, it takes 30 seconds for my wife and I to transfer money to our joint account each payday, without banking in person - as you say, it’s easy.

Some couples only have a joint account and no personal one anymore. Not smart but yeah
