A lot of people are saying that marriage doesn't matter for children of general family live. Wel if that's the case, why is fertility way down for most (if not all) countries where the marriage rate tanked...?

The answer is simple:
When the chief pair bonding mechanism fails, the bonding fails also. There was a reason why marriage was pushed in the past. They broke the social/religious contract and with it the core of society.

Ain't it a good thing if fertility goes down in many countries?

The world population has grown from 1.65 billion to 7.6 billion since 1900 and is still growing on a planet with limited resources:

Do we really need more people on the planet? 

with every new person born the chances of bringing the next genius like einstein or tesla into the world increases

you drop the birth rate and the chances of it happening fall drastically
