No it's an omission.

To abstain is to refrain from doing enjoying something. It is most definitely an act.

I am surprised nobody hs said this to you yet. You are arguing a fallacious point. Argumentum ad naturam is logical fallacy.
Basically you are arguing something being good or bad based on it being natural or unnatural.
The fact that something is natural doesn't make it good. Example:
A grizzly bear naturally defends it's cubs should the bear perceive a threat. If your presence is perceived as a threat than you will no doubt become that bear's business. Definitely not good. Something isn't bad simply because it is unnatural. Example: a train track is man made though it allows food to be moved across the country in places where they have no agriculture.
So, arguing that something is or isn't good based on it being natural or unnatural is a fallacy.

The act of omission is in fact an act.
An omission is an omission.
So is space travel.
