No-one ever seems to address the fact that the 2nd movie wasn't really about "Something’s gotta Be done About your kids!" at all...

But it was… they just got distracted in the middle a little… :P

No, the future kids trip was just a vehicle to get the future sports almanac into past Biff's hands.

Mechanical and biological immortality does not render invincibility. And, considering that there is AIs walking around, what is there to prevent transference of human memories and personalities into an AI cell in the not so distant future?
...can AIs have offspring?

Things on my computer spawn child processes all the time.
Is it cold in here?:
I really expected it to end with a marriage proposal. They've taken their vows, might as well make it official.

What I seem to recall from the directors' commentary on the DVD was that since the first film was written separately, they hadn't originally planned for any sequels. Then when they went to write the second movie, they ended up basically BSing their way out of having to make the whole movie about the kids.
That's also why Jennifer is pretty much discarded in an alley at the beginning of the second movie, and doesn't really come back in any significant role until the end of the third movie.
They also did something similar with the 'don't call me chicken' retcon: Marty never says the line in the first movie. They came up with it for the scene in the Cafe 80s, because they needed Marty to stay and fight in a situation where any sensible person would run away.
