No one can counter the imperative of any species to maintain existence, to either procreate for maintenance and expansion of the species, or live eternally. The latter, impossible as far as we know. Abortion violates that aspect of species continuance and the associated social contracts, for the good of the society, the good of the species. That one aborted fetus could be the individual who saves mankind from itself? And here is where it gets sticky, which decision, abortion or fulfillment of pregnancy is for the good of the species and/or society? Life is most often precious to those who enjoy it, yet the history of mankind is filled with murder and killing en masse, displaying the cheapness of life by some for others. Is the unwanted child a benefit to the species or society? Neither of us can honestly answer that rhetorical question.

I already told you I won't speculate.
Not me. I rarely find hypothecation interesting.
Seems you like hypotheticals, when you are the one presenting the issues.
