The Constitution does not contain anything about marriage in the Federal sphere — at all.

Indeed, and the govt should get out of marriage altogether.

Agreed. The government should abdicate all interest in marriage. Marriage should be a purely religious endeavor. There should be no ‘legal’ distinction between married and unmarried. No difference. Everyone treated the same. Problems solved. It’s none of the government’s business - Period.
