It's irresponsible for anyone with kids to have not done this.

Completely depends on where you live. Many countries have sane defaults for simple cases.
No country can have a sane default for “who should look after my kids if both parents die suddenly?”. That will always be a very personal decision that depends very much on your family situation.
The sane default is that the family is functional enough that the closest living relative will know best.
Which family? Mine or my wife's? Who chooses that?
