Exactly. And I know we were supposed to go "aww" when he and everyone attending Carol and Susan's wedding because it was a lesbian one and Carol's parents didn't want to come. But if we think about it in reality, how many of us would attend the wedding of you ex wife or husband? Very tiny minority.
It makes Ross look very good. Not only is he supporting the marriage in terms of a "anyone can get married, not just a man and a woman", but also because he would be in the minority of people who would attend under those circumstances (ex wife cheats on you, gets married, you go to the wedding).
And just like people said, after the way they treated him, it's even more big of him.
