The explanation is very simple. “Machines CAN NOT own property” and your spouse, being a machine, would inherit everything you owned at the time of your death. So, to prevent this from ever happening, marriage to any robot can not be allowed ever. No matter how real they may seem to be , they are ALL just “machines”. They can be your companion at what ever level you like but, never your legal spouse.
Soon enough the machines will become smarter than humans, and at that point humans will start to use biocomputers to enhance their own intelligence. At that point the difference between a human and a robot is so slim, that many robots will probably achieve citizenship and it becomes legal to marry.

I don’t know about that, if this man can marry his pillow then why not?
