You'll need to be more specific on exactly what duties and responsibilities you think this would apply.

In general, sharing duties dilutes responsibility. If something goes wrong, who is to blame? This problem can be exacerbated when two people have fundamentally different thinking processes. In addition men and women are naturally suited for different tasks, both physically and emotionally. This is one reason why single parenthood is problematic.

In addition men and women are naturally suited for different tasks, both physically and emotionally. This is one reason why single parenthood is problematic.

One or two of your points are close to valid, but overall this remains in the vague and imprecise catagory.

You also come across as someone who's never been married or have children of your own.

Think in terms of a scale with one end being "can't do or doesn't do well", the other end being "can do or excels at". Then you plot two bell curves on this graph, one male the other female. Now some specific duties~responsibilities per graph. Examples;

1) On the shooting range:
Except for handling really heavy rifles, women and men tend to come close to a match - assuming similar training and experience.

Or flying aircraft, "where the jury is still out": Again very close matches, though older heavier aircraft with no control assist can be difficult for average women to fly.

the bell curves tend to match on their peaks.

2) Reproduction; birth and raising offspring:
If we apply natural methods the female bell goes way over to the can do, the male way over to the can't in terms of carrying in womb(or egg laying)/birthing.

Momma cat pops out six kittens. She cleans, nips the cord, and breast feeds them. She has to leave them alone and unprotected when she hunts food for herself - to make milk, or feed to her babies once they are older and more developed (she usually is the that teaches them to hunt). Tomcat does nothing in this process except be one of the studs that got her pregnant, or in some cases kill kittens he thinks aren't "his".

Humans - She may be the one who carries and gives birth. Then breastfeeds. However nothing in male structure(nature) says dad can't change a diaper as good as mom. There tends to be close common ground on many of the duties and responsibilities, usually by mutual agreement.

Cooking; Both the wife and I are excellent cooks. She better on some dishes than me, and vise-versa. But if I'm the one cooking the meal and it gets burnt, it was my duty and fault(responsibility).

Tasks involving strength to lift heavy objects or swing heavy tools. In most cases the bell curves lean strongly male and way separate from the female curve. In logging it is almost all lumberJACKs and not many LumberJILLs ~ one in hundreds, if that.

Last example - military combat - My oldest son joined the Army Reserve back about 1999. He went to Basic Training that Summer (between his junior and senior years of high school). This was early on when women were joining and going into many support services, hence his training company was mixed genders. Basic includes some fundamental combat training, squad maneuvers, dig a foxhole, etc. One task is to drag a fellow soldier who is down(wounded) in the middle of a roadway and subject to enemy fire, back to cover with his squad. The drill is for a single trooper(male) to dash out, get a grip on the harness of the downed trooper and drag them off the road to the side. Expectation is that any male who gotten this far in training has strength to do this task. All the guys in his platoon could do it. The females however had to perform in pairs to drag the downed soldier back to friendly line.

Problem with this is the "rescue" risks two lives instead of one to retrieve a fellow soldier, hence if both females are shot during the task the unit is down two more rather than one.

Some may be familiar with the book of this title from a few decades ago. Deals with the never ending differences and conflicts between the sexes.
I'll bring it and other reference sources here in future. These will include some that delve into the biological basis, which is more than genitalia.

For this moment I've come across a couple articles on the internet of interest to this topic and wanted a suitable place to deposit.

What do you personally think of the data relating to us guys being "brain damaged" by a surge of testosterone while we are in our mother's womb that burns out thirty to thirty three percent of our Corpus Calossum, [the bundle of connecting fibers between the two hemispheres of the male brain?

It's by design of biology and the relationship between the "X" and "Y" chromosomes and their relationship to the hormones estrogen and testosterone.

In the book I mentioned early "Brain Sex" they mention how in recent decades with more women getting brain injuries and more study of such, it's been found that what areas/parts of the brain "control" are different between males and females.
