With no official, enforced definition of marriage, then marriage would no longer exist.

Can't agree. I'd be every bit as married without an official definition of marriage. Nothing would change at home.

By that standard so would every other person be truly married in his head, let each individual live in his head and with his own definitons all he wants, just leave “marriage” alone.

For many having a piece of paper from the gubberment telling them when they are married and when the marriage can be over is a good thing. In my opinion, this way of looking at marriage has been awful for the institution, at least in modern times.
