Question:

Do you think Jewish matrilineal descent laws are made to increase the number of Jews?

Society views the father's heritage/religion as the dominant one.

So by instituting the matrilineal descent laws, if a non-Jew male marries a Jew, she feels that it's her duty to raise the kids as Jews and the kids knowing this information will identify as Jews.
So in the end, whatever the outcome, a union between a Jew and a non-Jew ends in Jewish kids.
