Potential does not matter ...it is what it is.
In the US viability is about 23 or 24 weeks so abortions are banned ( except for the woman's life/ risk of woman's major bodily function.)
The vast majority of elective abortions ( over 91 percent ) occur in the first trimester long before the unborn has any organized brain waves.
An unborn is a potential and yes, the unborn's brain may never develop.
Science shows us that 15 to 20 percent of known pregnancies do miscarry.
Women in the US have and should have a choice to a legal elective abortion.
It's nice that you've been able to arbitrarily pick a point that suits you. Everyone has their rationalizations for doing what they do.
