I know at least one friend that wants to adopt/foster once they’re ready, instead of having biological children.

The justification was similar to what you said, where they want to pass on their values / legacy, but don’t care about the genetic side

This is the answer. The problem is the huge expense to adopt at least in the US. Money that could make a better life for the child being adopted is taken by the state.

We need to streamline adoption while still vetting the potential parents as unlikely to be abusive.
