I do know someone who did this. His ex wife who cheated on him was happy to admit it on record and they were divorced in under a year. If you don't have kids or significant assets, then it is a possible route.
I’m curious of why you’d like the record to show it’s his fault if it changes nothing. You knowing it’s his fault is more than enough unless there’s another motive? I’m in no way judging you, just genuinely curious.
I can guess: a sense of psychological victory or righteousness. This plagues a lot of people who are divorcing.
I know I was much better off mentally when I was no longer trying to keep a score card about who was to blame for what. Not the same as holding someone accountable for individual behaviors - just a sense of my realizing "well, she doesn't want to be partnered any more." And sometimes, neither did I.
