We gotta have backups in the really off chance of Mathilde kicking the bucket or becoming a rat. Also, having a mini Mathilde is both cute and hilarious for me.

We know literally nothing about the guy. For all we know, he's actually got pretty good Stewardship, and his actions so far actually look pretty reasonable from his end.
We don't have all the information.

Eh, you make good points as far as Mathilde goes, but I'm just plain not interested in getting tied down, having to birth children, raise them, deal with a husband requiring attention too. Just doesn't sound fun.

Mathilde's currently seriously contemplating never finding love. I don't believe that to be empty words, or only a possibility that exists in her head.

I don't think Mathilde will be the sort of person who does that for a long period of time. But do you know who does, Anton. Dude gonna be the best stay in home dad of all time, while Mathilde come back around from time to time bringing odd gifts for the kid which ranges from magic dwarf necklace to an orc boss war axe.
Edit: Also helps that Anton can also easily hire Nannies to help with that since he is a noble and a pretty well of one from what I know.

That doesn't mean children aren't a commitment. One I don't think the thread would be willing to entirely wash their hands of, Anton's qualifications or not.

He's a Baron. It'd be expected he'd have an heir.

Do it, he's a good lad. I'm sure he can get proper educators, and in proper CK2 fashion, the offspring will inherit the luck of both sides of the family.

But Mathilde wants to get married. Children she's not sure about, but she certainly wants to make that commitment of marriage. She's contemplating a life without it not because that appeals to her, but because she's starting to think she'll never find someone to enjoy life with. It's painful to read.

Anton: "Back from hunting down villains, Mathilde?"
Mathilde: "Hunting down some dark elf assassins trying to undermine the resurgence of the dwarven realms. I've gotten most of them, but there's still one lurking about. How've things been with you?"
Anton: "Arnold's shown some talent for the sword, even better than he's been at numbers, and Bell's showing what I think might be a talent for magic. That, or the last of the dark elf assassins has an unusual soft spot for children, enough to convince her to betray her homeland. Pariatha's currently taking tea in the guest chamber, and had some fascinating stories to share about the start of that war between Ulthuan and the dwarves I think some of our friends might like to hear."

That doesn't sound pleasant. Being tied down in a relationship that is basically long-distance. He's done best for himself on his own so far, same for us.
It's difficult enough for us being tied to an advisorial position, marriage is even worse.
And given his obligations to produce heirs, well...no. Just, no.

Agreed. From what @BoneyM has told us the deal was basically fine? "Pay me 75% of my predicted tax income for the next two years in exchange for the ability to collect taxes for those years" isn't necessarily a bad deal; in this case, Roswita really wanted to finish purging as much of Sylvania as she could reach, so she needed the quick cash.
The knock on effects are allowing the EIC to cement its economic control over Western Stirland, but that isn't much of a worry for her, because the EIC is controlled by Stirland loyalists who served her father extremely capably. Hell, she might even be relying on the Dammerlichtreiter to break the whole thing up if Wilhelmia falls to temptation.
It appears a much worse deal to us, because the thread is prejudiced against Roswita and we have information she doesn't, specifically that Western Stirland is about to have an incredible economic boom. But everyone was surprised by that, so it isn't really a mark against her competence. Sure, she made what was in hindsight a bad call, but those happen. It doesn't mean she's dumb or unqualified, and it doesn't mean her steward is, either.

At least for me, that type of family dynamics is pretty common to me. Just that in this case, the role is reversed with Mathilde coming back in the weekends with a Gyrocopter and Anton being with the kids all week. It's also possible for Anton to come into Karag Nar assuming that Anton senior is fine with this.
I don't know, at least for me, I just wanted to see Mathilde being able to enjoy life aside from fighting/researching/Ranald and building a family would be nice for Mathilde at least in my opinion.
