If two marriages breakup with an individual from each then getting married to each other, do we count that as 2 marriages ended or just the net loss of 1?

Net, of course.

But it's not a true 1:1 replacement because now you have to work through awkward group decisions like do you to invite the solo, aggrieved pair to future pool parties or do you invite the newly formed couple who fucked the dynamic to begin with? The answer is clearly the more attractive duo but it's still kind of uncomfortable.
