I would bet there is some estate-planning or tax advantage behind it all. I admit I’m cynical... but, it seems silly for someone with access to, essentially, infinite wealth, to worry about getting some paperwork from a district judge.

But that seems valid for a divorce even amongst the ultra-rich; they want to be able to control where their personal funds are going, without anyone else having a say. And the response that "well, they could just agree that each get half and they function independently" is no less true for we poor commoners if our significant other is amenable.
