I’d add that they have to be carefully structured so that they take into account things like the length of the marriage (someone who stops working or sacrifices their career as part of the marriage gets increasingly more dependent on the earner, so they’d be entitled to more and more of the mutual wealth).

And if the marriage is very short, they’d get less of the wealth because they presumably can still have a career and earn money for themselves.

If you don’t allow for the above, you’d increase the chances that the pre-nup will be voided for being unfair.
