If the young lady is trustworthy and pious, then why does she care about signing a docuмent that will never affect her?
If the young man is pious and trustworthy, why does he need something that will never affect him?

Maybe partially, but not totally.  I'd rather have an agreement than not.
Your argument is one based on extremes.  "Well, the safety features of a car don't work 100% of the time, and even if you had airbags, and steel framing, anti-lock brakes and impact-resistant engineering, you could still die, so you might as well save $ and buy a crappy car because safety features are a waste."  Just because something isn't full-proof doesn't mean it's worthless.
The only thing fool-proof is that a fool not get married.

Isn’t adultry a reason to get a divorce in the Church’s eyes? Or well, God’s eyes.
There is NO "reason to get a divorce".
There ARE reasons where separation is allowed (matter of choice), and also reasons where annulment is allowed (again, matter of choice).  While this may seem minor , it is not.  Some women choose to stay with a spouse where she has legitimate grounds for separation or annulment.  The decision is her choice.

No, annulment is not a matter of choice. Annulment is when there is no marriage. The decision is not hers to make. It is for the Church to decide.

Re-read what I said...

In this regard, it is her choice, since the paperwork must first be filed...
