So what you're saying is... casual sex is fine so long as it doesn't lead to pregnancy?
I mean for example Casual Lesbian Sex? Perfectly AOK.
The real problem with what you're saying is that you're guaranteeing people WILL get pregnant by multiple partners. Only that's not what happens. I don't know many people who've been in casual relationships (myself included) who've ended up with kids by multiple partners. I don't know anyone with 12 kids either. In fact, I only have 5 kids--and they're all by my husband. Not to mention just two pregnancies (twins and Triplets).
There's nothing wrong with casual sex between consenting parties. To think there is, is to try to force your own wishes on others. And I'm not okay with that. That's more harmful than casual sex by a hundred fold.
